Clearing Your Way to
Make Confident Diagnosis
What you see is crucial. Treatment decisions are built upon your words, so you need to be sure with each scan and consistent image quality is key. With automated and consistent documentation, fewer repeat scans and more efficient workflows in image acquisition you can focus on the patients through confident diagnosis.

Our Expert Point of View
Meet Pamela, a radiologist embracing the power of efficiency for consistent image quality with Bayer’s Image Acquisition Workflow Solutions.
Let’s Clear Your Way
Explore how our integrated workflow solutions clear your way, for your diagnostic confidence.
- Consistent Flow Rate with Piston-Based Injection Systemsexpand_less
CT
Higher IDRs
The MEDRAD® Centargo piston-based injection system, together with low viscous Ultravist® (iopromide), supports you to achieve higher IDRs compared with peristaltic-based injectors.
MR
Reliable Image Quality
MEDRAD® MRXperion helps achieve a consistent and high flow rate. Used with Gadovist® (gadobutrol), our 1.0 molar contrast agent with high relaxivity, you can attain the image quality required to reach a diagnosis.
- Individualized Injection Protocolsexpand_more
CT
Automated Personalization*
With MEDRAD® Centargo combined with //Smart Protocols, your image quality remains consistent. The software automatically adjusts individual protocols to consider scanner kVp, patient weight, region of interest, and iodine delivery rates.
MR
Automated Personalization*
With MEDRAD® MRXperion combined with //Smart Protocols, your image quality remains consistent. The software automatically adjusts individual protocols based on patient weight and disease indication to support optimal contrast dose.
- Standardized Protocols across Injector Fleetexpand_more
CT & MR
Protocol Sharing Across Injectors*
With //Injector Management software sharing protocols and rulesets across MEDRAD® Centargo, MEDRAD® MRXperion, or other Bayer supported injectors, you can be confident you are working with consistent parameters that support the quality of your scans.
- Enhanced Visualizationexpand_more
CT
DualFlow Technology
With MEDRAD® Centargo’s DualFlow technology, you can simultaneously inject saline and contrast at different ratios. For example, this allows for visualization of both the left and right heart using multiphasic protocols.
MR
Clear Liver Imaging
To help you diagnose focal liver disease, MEDRAD® MRXperion and Primovist® (gadoxetic acid), a liver-specific contrast agent, enable dynamic and hepatobiliary phase imaging.
- Automation of Documentationexpand_more
CT & MR
Accuracy of Information*
You can achieve consistent documentation by using MEDRAD® Centargo or MEDRAD® MRXperion with //Automated Documentation to automate data entry. All your contrast and injection data can be fed directly into RIS, SR and PACS for traceability – reducing gaps and potential errors.
- Remote/On-Site Clinical and Service Supportexpand_more
CT & MR
Remote Access and On-Site Support*
Get expert support from our clinical and service teams on-site, whenever you need it. Additionally, VirtualCare® keeps you going with remote monitoring, advanced diagnostics, and rapid support of your injectors.
