MEDRAD
MEDRAD was founded in 1964,
when M. Stephen Heilman, M.D.
created the first powered
angiographic injector in the
kitchen of his home near
Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania. An
emergency room physician by day,
“Doc” saw tremendous potential
in angiography, a revolutionary
X-ray technology that made it
possible to visualize blood
vessels inside the body. Power
injecting a contrast agent into
the vessels, he reasoned, would
enhance the image and make it
possible to diagnose the heart
disease and stroke patients who
regularly came through the
emergency room.
Doc's invention was the first in
a long list of MEDRAD
innovations. MEDRAD later
introduced the first injector
technology for computed
tomography (CT) and magnetic
resonance (MR) imaging, and has
become the leading provider of
ancillary devices for the MR
suite.
Recently, MEDRAD has introduced
state-of-the-art injection
systems for CT, Stellant® CT
Injection Systems, and for MR,
Spectris Solaris® MR Injection
System. These products, along
with continuous innovation in
Cardiology, MR Coils, and other
medical imaging areas, will
ensure that MEDRAD continues to
deliver "Performance. For life."
