The use case shown in Figure LLLL.2-2 is an example of how a performed object could be used for capturing an automatic infusion. The technologist selects a patient at the infusion manager from the work list available from the scheduling system and then performs an automated administration of contrast for the selected patient. The infusion manager records various events during the administration. The data from the injector events and from the adverse events that occurred during the administration are captured and obtained by the infusion manager.

Upon completion of the administration procedure, the infusion manager generates a Performed Imaging Agent Administration SR object using the injection data obtained from the injection system and including the events and updated parameters that were captured during the administration. The generated report is then sent to the PACS and other contrast usage consumers.
