Class I - Dangerous
Due to a software issue where the process of patient scanning, the scatter correction may occasionally fail with will potentially cause a failure of the PET image reconstruction and generation of PET images.

The wireless VSM module of a mobile PET/CT system, operating in an environment with strong Wi-Fi signals, may experience ECG signal and respiratory signal loss due to Wi-Fi interference. ECG and respiratory signal loss during acquisition can result in the failure of ECG and respiratory-gated reconstruction of the PET scan, which may require rescanning of the patient.
Class I - Dangerous
X-ray imaging system positioning image and protocol label is reversed for Flexion and Extension on C-Spine and L-Spine, this will cause the image to be incorrectly labeled and may cause the patient to have a repeat exposure.
The EXAM acquisition workflow could occasionally freeze after canceling the PET scan.

There is a potential for the X-Ray tube head (Touch screen interface) to perform an uncommanded motion. This could result in a collision with the patient.
A potential issue of an incorrect CT scan delay timer to be displayed on the gantry Digital Display Panel (DDP) during multi-phase contrast scanning. This could lead the operator to receive unnecessary exposure to radiation.

In affected software version, of Positron emission tomography and computed tomography system, the CT Hounsfield unit curve may not display in real time when using the bolus tracking protocol with the tracker scan function. If this occurs, the subsequent clinical scanning protocols will need to be started manually, which may effect image enhancement, and may result in patient rescan.
1) 1) Potential intermittent issue may cause image data problems, may lead to artifacts; 2) Potential intermittent scout scanning interruption due to angle signal drift caused by external interference; 3) Metal edge overlap of mylar strip in gantry may create sharp edge. May lead to repeat scanning and abrasions.
1) Service function problem may cause false marking of a bad channel resulting in ring artifacts; 2) Potential intermittent scout scanning interruption due to angle signal drift caused by external interference; 3) Metal edge overlap of mylar strip in gantry may create sharp edge. May lead to repeat scanning and abrasions (N/A for Serial No. 200036)
The metal edge overlap of the mylar strip in the gantry was uneven, which may create a sharp edge.

Two issues were identified with the computed tomography x-ray system including a service function which may cause false marking of a bad channel resulting in ring artifacts, and potential intermittent scout scanning interruption due to occasional angle signal drift.. If these problems occur, it may be necessary to rescan the patient resulting in an additional dose of radiation and the possible need for additional contrast medium.
Two issues were identified with the stationary x-ray system. 1. Some position illustrations in the patient exam interface show the incorrect anatomical position for the standard of care. When the image is acquired with the wrong reference position, clinical diagnostic requirements cannot be met.T2. Where image stitching is used, the left and right tag information may be lost. When these problems are encountered, an additional exposure is needed and the patient will receive more radiation.

Two issues were identified with the computed tomography x-ray system including an intermittent issue which may affect image data leading to artifacts; and intermittent scout scanning interruption due to occasional angle signal drift. This may result in the need for rescanning of the patient with the patient receiving an additional dose of radiation and possible use of additional contrast media.

Potential sporadic software bugs in R001.3.0.0.750505 software version may cause an issue with the PET acquisition raw data causing reconstruction problems during PET/CT scanning and could possibly cause rescans of patients with additional dose.
