Siemens Medical Solutions USA, Inc recalls ARTIS Pheno VE30A and VE40A
Reason for recall
During 3D acquisitions, lighter and darker patient images may be captured, which may result in less accurate 3D reconstruction. The variation of brightness is a result of a constant unregulated medium dose and the angular change of patient diameter caused by rotational acquisition. This may result in unintentional low-dose radiation exposure to a patient.
