1. A system for accessing a fluid injection system comprising:
at least one processor programmed or configured to:
authenticate a user for access to a fluid injection system, wherein the fluid injection system is configured to administer contrast fluid including a contrast agent to a patient, wherein, when authenticating the user for access to the fluid injection system, the at least one processor is programmed or configured to:
provide a graphical user interface (GUI) on a display screen that displays an image to scan by a user device associated with the user,
receive a login credential associated with the image via a software application for accessing the fluid injection system, the software application being on the user device associated with the user, and
authenticate the user for access to the fluid injection system based on receiving the login credential via the software application;
provide data identifying one or more features of the software application for accessing the fluid injection system based on an input received via the software application, wherein the one or more features of the software application comprises:
one or more features associated with providing data associated with the fluid injection system, wherein the one or more features associated with providing data associated with the fluid injection system comprises:
a feature associated with obtaining data associated with an error code of the fluid injection system,
a feature associated with generating a service history of the fluid injection system,
a feature associated with providing the service history of the fluid injection system,
a feature associated with generating a service request for the fluid injection system,
a feature associated with providing instructions for operation of the fluid injection system,
a feature associated with providing data associated with a service procedure to be performed on the fluid injection system,
a feature associated with providing data associated with a service procedure that was performed on the fluid injection system, or
any combination thereof;
receive data identifying a selected feature of the software application for accessing the fluid injection system;
determine whether the user is authorized to access the selected feature of the software application based on authenticating the user for access to the fluid injection system, wherein, when determining whether the user is authorized to access selected feature of the software application, the at least one processor is programmed or configured to:
determine whether the user has a level of access that authorizes the user to access the selected feature of the software application, wherein the level of access is based on a user profile of the user; and
provide access to the selected feature of the software application for accessing the fluid injection system based on determining that the user is authorized to access the selected feature of the software application.
