CT Exprés 3D™ now compatible with Contrast Media in Soft Bags *

(February 18th, 2010)


Swiss Medical Care is proud to announce the introduction of its new version of the CT Exprés 3D™ for Contrast Media in Soft Bags. This new version enables the direct use of Contrast Media in Soft Bags, as well as plastic or glass bottles.

"This new version includes a new connection between Soft Bags and the injector, dedicated holders for Soft Bags and a software upgrade compatible with our CT Exprés 3D™ installed base. It allows Contrast Media to be drawn directly from any Soft Bag, according to a patient’s need, and use the remaining Contrast Media in the Soft Bag for the following patient without any preparation time in-between. Furthermore no filling step is required, since the Soft Bag is directly placed onto the injector and no syringe is needed" says Hervé Duffour, Marketing and Sales Director. “This new Injector remains also fully compatible with the use of conventional bottles, whenever required”.



"This new feature enlarges our injector’s capabilities to address new requirements expressed by some of our customers. It also represents a further contribution by Swiss Medical Care to environmental friendliness, which is of utmost importance to our company. While our injector already contributes to waste reduction by eliminating the need for syringes and waste of Contrast Media, the direct use of Soft Bags and/or large volume bottles represents a further major advantage in terms of time savings and sterility preservation” says Frédéric Neftel, MD, President & CEO of Swiss Medical Care. “Our company remains committed to bringing the best innovations to a rapid growing number of customers which have already chosen to use the CT Exprés 3D™.
