    XDS Extravasation Detection System Operation of Radiofrequency waves relative to veins [11]. Top image (before extravasation) demonstrates the radiofrequency waves calibrating the tissue density before contrast administration; bottom image (extravasation) demonstrates the contrast extravasation being detected by changes in radiofrequency pulses from changes in tissue density.
