Abstract

See full text

A means for detecting the presence of a transparent liquid in the barrel of a transparent angiography syringe comprising a plurality of indicator patterns positioned on the exterior of the barrel, the indicator patterns arranged in a helical array circumscribing the barrel of the syringe. When the syringe is empty, each indicator pattern is seen as having a first elliptical configuration; however, when the fluid is present in the barrel, the indicator pattern appears to have a second circular configuration, and the difference in apparent configuration is indicative of the presence of the liquid. The indicator patterns are arranged in a non-overlapping array, to permit non-obstructed viewing of the patterns, as well as ready comparison of distorted and non-distorted patterns.
