A system (110) for measuring injection of a liquid medicine, comprising a syringe body (112) having proximal and distal ends, a syringe interior (124), and a syringe flange (126) at the proximal end thereof; a stopper member (114) disposed in the syringe interior (124); a plunger member (116) coupled to the stopper member (114) and configured to be manipulated to insert the stopper member (114) distally in the syringe interior (124) relative to the syringe body (112); a needle (130) coupled to the syringe body (112) at the distal end thereof; and a sensor flange (150) removably coupled to the syringe body (112), the sensor flange (150) comprising a sensor (152) to measure an injection characteristic; and a processor to analyze the injection characteristic to determine an occurrence of an injection event, wherein the sensor is a force sensor (152) and the injection characteristic is a distally directed force applied to the plunger member (116) disposed at least partially in the syringe body (112).
