Abstract
No catheter failures were demonstrated in this study using injection rates well above those used in conventional CTA. Power injector tubing failure was demonstrated at an injection rate of 30 ml/sec, which generated mean pressures in the 16-cm catheters of 920 psi (tubing rating per manufacturer is 300 psi). This study demonstrated no catheter or injector tubing failure at injection rates of 5 to 25 ml/sec.
