Philips recalls Incisive CT X-Ray systems with specific serial numbers due to potential metal component failure during rotation, risking low-velocity fragments. Affected units may need inspection or repair.
Metal mounting box on the rotating scanner on rotor (heat change box) located within the Incisive CT system, may become compromised, resulting in potential contact with other gantry components located within the Incisive CT system during rotation. Resulting in a fragment of a damaged component expelled at a low velocity
Philips is recalling certain Incisive CT computed tomography systems because a metal mounting box inside the rotating scanner could become damaged, potentially causing small fragments to be expelled during operation. This poses a risk of minor injury if fragments contact the user or nearby objects.
The metal mounting box inside the rotating scanner may become compromised during operation. If damaged, it could expel small fragments at low velocity during system rotation, potentially causing minor injury if fragments contact the user or nearby objects.
Healthcare facilities using the recalled Incisive CT systems are most at risk. Patients and staff during scans could be affected if fragments contact them.
