Yes, Asimov makes a great noise in his autobiography about how he accounted for some details they ignored in the movie. However, my recollection is that he used the same injection procedure (first shrinkage, drop 1" sub in giant syringe full of saline, second shrinkage, now normal-sized syringe used) which leaves Benes trying to hold in his own volume or more of saline after the hour is up.
