Angiodroid
Angiodroid is the innovative and exclusive Carbon Dioxide Injector for peripheral interventional angiography below the diaphragm.
The Technology has been developed by company’s laboratories during the last 5 years in cooperation with well-known Private and Public Hospitals as well as Italian Universities. The practice of the CO2 provides significant benefits and a very low rate of complications compared with iodinated contrast.
