A fluid delivery system includes a pressurizing mechanism. The pressurizing mechanism includes: a substantially cylindrical body having a movable member positioned therein that divides the body into a first chamber and a second chamber; a plunger rod connected to a first side of the movable member and extending through a substantially closed first end of the body; and an elongated member connected to a second side of the movable member and extending through a substantially closed second end of the body. The plunger rod configured to operatively engage a fluid container. Fluid is dispensed from the fluid container by forming a vacuum within at least the first chamber by moving the movable member toward the second end of the body, allowing atmospheric pressure to enter the second chamber, and actuating the pressurizing mechanism to cause the moving member to move towards the first end of the body.

1. A fluid delivery system comprising a pressurizing mechanism, the pressurizing mechanism comprising: a substantially cylindrical body having a movable member positioned therein that divides the body into a first chamber and a second chamber;a plunger rod connected to a first side of the movable member and extending through a substantially closed first end of the body, the plunger rod configured to operatively engage a fluid container;an elongated member connected to a second side of the movable member and extending through a substantially closed second end of the body;a first valve in communication with the first chamber; anda second valve in communication with the second chamber,wherein a fluid is dispensed from the fluid container by forming a vacuum within at least the first chamber due to the first valve by moving the movable member toward the second end of the body thereby expelling air from the second chamber through the second valve, advancing the movable member toward the first end of the body to create a vacuum in the second chamber that balances the vacuum in the first chamber, allowing atmospheric pressure to enter the second chamber by opening the second valve, and actuating the pressurizing mechanism to cause the movable member to move towards the first end of the body and forcing the plunger rod to move within the fluid container. 2. The fluid delivery system of claim 1, wherein the fluid container is a syringe comprising: a substantially cylindrical syringe barrel having a fluid dispensing end and an open end; and a plunger configured to be received within the open end of the syringe barrel, and wherein the plunger rod is configured to operatively engage the plunger when the syringe is connected to the first end of the body. 3. The fluid delivery system of claim 1, wherein a disposable fluid set is connected between a fluid dispensing end of the fluid container and a patient. 4. The fluid delivery system of claim 3, further comprising an actuator connected to the fluid dispensing end of the fluid container, the actuator being switchable between a first state in which the fluid is prevented from flowing through the fluid dispensing end and a second state in which the fluid can flow through the fluid dispensing end, and wherein the pressurizing mechanism is actuated by switching the actuator from the first state to the second state. 5. The fluid delivery system of claim 4, wherein the actuator is positioned within the disposable fluid set. 6. The fluid delivery system of claim 4, further comprising a controller configured to control the state of the actuator. 7. The fluid delivery system of claim 6, wherein the controller is remote from the actuator. 8. The fluid delivery system of claim 6, wherein the controller controls the state of the actuator via ultrasound, via a protocol of an imaging scanner, via microwave energy, via a mechanical link, via infrared light, via fiber optic cable, via pneumatic power, via hydraulic power, via voice activation, via movement of a scanner table, via time delay, via an RF gradient trigger from a scanner, via a photo cell, via optical light, via an RF signal, or via line power. 9. The fluid delivery system of claim 1, wherein the elongated member is a rod having a first end connected to the second side of the movable member and a second end extending through the substantially closed second end of the body. 10. The fluid delivery system of claim 9, wherein the second end of the rod includes a handle, thereby allowing a user to manually move the movable member toward the second end of the body. 11. The fluid delivery system of claim 1, further comprising a second pressurizing mechanism, the second pressurizing mechanism comprising: a second substantially cylindrical body having a second movable member positioned therein that divides the second body into a first chamber and a second chamber;a second plunger rod connected to a first side of the second movable member and extending through a substantially closed first end of the second body, the second plunger rod configured to operatively engage a second fluid container;a second elongated member connected to a second side of the second movable member and extending through a substantially closed second end of the second body; anda fluid path set extending from a fluid dispensing end of the fluid container and a fluid dispensing end of the second fluid container to a patient. 12. The fluid delivery system of claim 11, wherein a one-way check valve is positioned within the fluid path set downstream from the fluid dispensing end of the second fluid container and upstream from the fluid dispensing end of the fluid container and the patient. 13. The fluid delivery system of claim 11, wherein a diameter of the fluid container is smaller than a diameter of the second fluid container such that a fluid within the fluid container is delivered at a higher pressure than a fluid within the second fluid container. 14. The fluid delivery system of claim 11, wherein a diameter of the substantially cylindrical body is larger than a diameter of the second substantially cylindrical body such that a fluid within the fluid container is delivered at a higher pressure than a fluid within the second fluid container. 15. The fluid delivery system of claim 11, wherein a fluid within the fluid container is different than a fluid within the second fluid container. 16. The fluid delivery system of claim 11, wherein a first one-way check valve is positioned at the fluid dispensing end of the fluid container and a second one-way check valve is positioned at the fluid dispensing end of the second fluid container. 17. The fluid delivery system of claim 16, wherein the second one-way check valve has a crack pressure that is greater than a crack pressure of the first one-way check valve such that a fluid within the fluid container is delivered before a fluid within the second fluid container when the pressurizing mechanism and the second pressurizing mechanism are actuated. 18. A fluid delivery system comprising: a pressurizing mechanism comprising a substantially cylindrical body having a substantially closed first end; a substantially closed second end; a movable member positioned therein that divides the body into a first chamber and a second chamber; a first valve in communication with the first chamber; and a second valve in communication with the second chamber; andan actuator connected to a fluid dispensing end of a fluid container, the actuator being switchable between a first state in which a fluid is prevented from being delivered and a second state in which the fluid is dispensed,wherein the fluid container is operatively coupled to the first end of the pressurizing mechanism, andthe fluid is dispensed from the fluid container by forming a vacuum within at least the first chamber due to the first valve by moving the movable member toward the second end of the body thereby expelling air from the second chamber through the second valve, advancing the movable member toward the first end of the body to create a vacuum in the second chamber that balances the vacuum in the first chamber, allowing atmospheric pressure to enter the second chamber by opening the second valve, and switching the actuator from the first state to the second state. 19. The fluid delivery system of claim 18, further comprising a controller configured to control the state of the actuator. 20. The fluid delivery system of claim 19, wherein the controller is remote from the actuator. 21. The fluid delivery system of claim 19, wherein the controller controls the state of the actuator via ultrasound, via a protocol of an imaging scanner, via microwave energy, via a mechanical link, via infrared light, via fiber optic cable, via pneumatic power, via hydraulic power, via voice activation, via movement of a scanner table, via time delay, via an RF gradient trigger from a scanner, via a photo cell, via optical light, via an RF signal, or via line power.
