GE Healthcare recalls Revolution EVO CT systems with model 5454001-260 that may produce rotated images during scans, potentially requiring rescan. Affected units include specific serial numbers.
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 EVO CT scanners that may produce rotated images during scans. This can cause the same rotation to reoccur if a rescan is needed, potentially requiring additional scans.
The CT system may rotate images by up to 56 degrees after the first scan image, especially in helical, cine, and cardiac scans. This rotation repeats if a rescan is required, but the images remain anatomically correct without distortion.
Healthcare facilities using GE Healthcare Revolution EVO CT scanners with model number 5454001-260 are affected. Patients undergoing scans with these systems may experience repeated image rotation if rescans are needed.
Check for model number 5454001-260 on the Revolution EVO CT scanner. Affected units have specific serial numbers: CBDGG2400018HM and CBDGG2400017HM.
