GE Healthcare recalls Revolution ACE CT systems with model 6670000-3 for potential image rotation during scans. Affected units may show progressively rotated images, requiring rescan if noticed.
GE HealthCare has become aware of a potential issue on certain Discovery, Optima, Revolution series CT systems, and certain operator console upgrades that can result in rotated CT images. Particularly with helical, cine, and cardiac (if applicable) scan modes, after the first image of an exam, each subsequent image can be rotated by an increasing amount. The amount of progressive image rotation is dependent on the gantry speed and the duration of the scan. The final image in the exam can be rotated up to a maximum of ~56 degrees. The entire anatomy rotates as a whole by equal degrees, without distortion, and the anatomical positioning and z-axis of the images remains correct. Small degrees of image rotation might not be noticed. If image rotation is noticed and necessitates a rescan of the patient, the same image rotation will reoccur.
GE Healthcare is recalling certain Revolution ACE CT scanners that may produce progressively rotated images during scans. This can cause the entire anatomy to rotate by up to 56 degrees after the first image, potentially requiring a rescan if noticed.
The CT system can rotate images progressively during scans, especially in helical, cine, and cardiac modes. Each subsequent image after the first may rotate by increasing amounts, with the final image potentially rotating up to 56 degrees. This rotation affects the entire anatomy without distortion but may require rescanning if noticed.
Healthcare facilities using GE Healthcare Revolution ACE CT scanners with model number 6670000-3 are affected. Patients undergoing scans on these systems may experience rotated images, but the risk is low as small rotations might not be noticeable.
Check for the model number 6670000-3 on GE Healthcare Revolution ACE CT scanners. Affected units have UDI/DI 00840682146159 or serial numbers starting with CBDAG2400020HM to CBDAG2400024HM.
Identify the model number on your GE Healthcare Revolution ACE CT scanner to see if it matches 6670000-3.
The recall states that small image rotations might not be noticeable, and the hazard does not involve injury risk.
Check for the model number 6670000-3 and UDI/DI 00840682146159 or serial numbers starting with CBDAG2400020HM to CBDAG2400024HM.
No action is required if the image rotation is not noticed. The recall does not specify a need to stop use.
