Steel cable installed inside the mobile column which supports the weight of the telescopic arm with the tube head has potential risk -an interference could cause the safety system which blocks the arm if the cable is cut off does not work properly, may result in patient injury
Under specific conditions (Fluoroscopic exam, ABS=OFF, manual change of parameters) wrong calculation of the dose/minute for fluoroscopy exams can be possible
Tomosynthesis image acquisition sequence did not stop automatically after expected number of exposures.
The exposed area of fluo exams possibly does not match the active area of the detector within specified limits.
Due to an inhomogeneous coating solution, pinholes can become visible in even dark images. Visibility of the pinholes varies as material from this coating run shows pinholes in different frequencies and intensities
A supplier for the Agfa system noted a potential for the steel support cables of a similar device to break. This led to a mandatory review of all systems, changing the pulley and cables if any deterioration in the cables or irregular or excessive pulley wear. If the two cables that support the equipment to its roof anchor break, the equipment might fall and cause harm to the patient, or others.
