Summary

A new tool to aid radiation exposure prevention is presented. The ERCP pneumatic injector, which may be used by the endoscopist by actuating a foot-operated starting system, is capable of injecting the contrast medium at the desired flow and pressure, which can be adjusted during the examination. In this way, personnel radiation risk is eliminated.
