System, method, and computer program product for predictive maintenance

A predictive maintenance system comprising:

• one or more injection systems including an injector including an injector motor configured to one of:
• (i) move a plunger to deliver fluid from a syringe of the injector and (ii) power a pump to pump fluids from a fluid source of the injector;
• one or more force sensors configured to measure a force of the injector motor of the injector needed to one of:
• (i) move the plunger to deliver fluid from the syringe of the injector and (ii) power the pump to pump fluids from the fluid source of the injector, for the one or more injection systems for one or more injection operations;
• a computer system comprising one or more processors programmed or configured to:
• receive operation data associated with the one or more injection systems, wherein the operation data includes one or more operation parameters associated with the one or more injection operations of the one or more injection systems, and wherein the one or more operation parameters include for each of the one or more injection systems the force of the injector motor thereof measured by the one or more force sensors for the one or more injection operations;
• determine one or more prediction scores for the one or more injection systems based on the operation data including for each of the one or more injection systems the force of the injector motor thereof measured by the one or more force sensors for the one or more injection operations, wherein the one or more prediction scores include one or more predictions of one or more operation failures or misuses for the one or more injection systems associated with a build-up of wear, contrast and/or dirt in connection therewith such that an effect of the build-up of wear, contrast and/or dirt for each of the one or more injection systems is determined by a comparison of the force of the injector motor thereof for a current or more recent injection operation to the force of the injector motor thereof for one of a previous injection operation and a calibration operation of the injector motor;
• provide maintenance data associated with the one or more operation failures or misuses, wherein the maintenance data is based on the one or more prediction scores;
• and
• disable, based on the maintenance data, the one or more injection systems from performing an injection operation.
