Contrast injector developer ACIST Medical Systems is launching a new contrast delivery system at this week's Transcatheter Cardiovascular Therapeutics (TCT) meeting in Washington, DC.
ACIST CVi is a new system that combines into one platform all of the features of ACIST's CMS and Voyager products. The device can be used for both cardiac and vascular angiography, according to ACIST, a subsidiary of Italian contract developer Bracco. The unit also features a lower-profile table-mounted injector and extendable control panel that can be placed where needed and that reduces the amount of equipment in the procedure room.
Commercial shipments of ACIST CVi should begin in the first quarter of 2006 or earlier, according to the company.
