CONTRAST IMAGING APPARATUS

PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To provide a contrast imaging apparatus allowing a person engaged in a contrast imaging to unconsciously recognize precautions on the contrast imaging and to safely perform the contrast imaging. SOLUTION: This contrast imaging apparatus, in response to the setting of contrast conditions, for example, the setting of the type of contrast medium, by an imaging condition setting section 3 in an operating console 8 and an injector 13, reads the precautions expressing noteworthy items from a storage section 2 when an output section 4 performs the contrast imaging, and outputs the precautions by characters and voice using, for example, a display 9 and a speaker 10. The precautions include, for example, information inducing the operator to confirm that a subject 14 has a constitution agreeing with the contrast imaging, to confirm whether the subject approves the contrast imaging, to explain the subject that the injection of the contrast medium may cause an unpleasant sensation, and the like.
