Contrast Booster™
The Contrast Booster™, brought to Africa by Tecmed Pharma™ in partnership with Ulrich Medical, is a breakthrough solution designed to enhance CT pulmonary angiography (CTPA) imaging by dramatically improving contrast quality. This device combats the longstanding challenge of insufficient contrast, empowering radiologists to diagnose PE faster and more accurately—when every second counts.
Features
Enhanced Image Clarity
• Uses a device-assisted Müller Maneuver (MM) to concentrate contrast in the pulmonary arteries.
• Improves contrast media density in target vessels, resulting in sharper, clearer CTPA images.
Reduced Error Rates
• Lowers incorrect contrasting rates from 12.3% to 0%, significantly increasing diagnostic reliability.
Biofeedback Technology
• Provides real-time feedback to patients via LED indicators, helping maintain optimal suction during the scan.
• Ensures the Müller Maneuver is performed at the correct intensity level.
Safe and Hygienic Design
• Comes with a disposable mouthpiece for single-patient use, ensuring comfort, safety, and compliance with hygiene standards.
Elimination of TIC Phenomenon
• Prevents the transient interruption of contrast (TIC), a common issue in pulmonary CT imaging that leads to compromised scan quality.
Increased Diagnostic Confidence
• Enables more accurate and consistent readings by radiologists, particularly in high-pressure, emergency settings.
Wireless Monitoring
• Includes a Charge and Communication Unit (CCU) that wirelessly connects to the patient interface, allowing the radiologist to guide and monitor performance during the procedure.
