Abstract

An injection system (101) includes a fluid delivery system for moving an injection medium along a flow path for injection thereof into a subject. The system (or a separate extravasation detection system(131)) has an ultrasound transducer (133) for detecting ultrasound energy reflected from inside the subject and an ultrasound contrast enhancement system for introducing microbubbles into the subject during the injection. The microbubbles increase reflectivity of one or more fluids in the subject to ultrasound energy, facilitating extravasation detection. A needle (143) or injection line may be constructed to produce the microbubbles during the injection, for example. In use, ultrasound is directed into the subject. Microbubbles are introduced into the subject during the injection to increase reflectivity of one or more fluids in the subject (181) to ultrasound. Ultrasound energy reflected from inside the subject is detected to obtain information indicative of whether or not the injection is extravasating or non-extravasating.
