SYSTEM FOR AIR VOLUME CORRECTION BASED ON FLUID PRESSURE AND FLOW RATE

摘要

A method for determining a volume of one or more air bubbles in a fluid path includes initiating an injection procedure in which at least one medical fluid is injected into the fluid path, receiving an electrical signal from an air detector of the fluid injector system, wherein the electrical signal indicates the presence of one or more air bubbles in the fluid path, calculating a flow rate of fluid in the fluid path, determining a fluid pressure in the fluid path, determining a count value of the one or more air bubbles representative of a volume of the one or more air bubbles, and updating a cumulative counter with the count value of the one or more air bubbles. The cumulative counter is representative of a cumulative volume of air that has passed through the fluid path during the injection procedure.
