Philips recalls Ingenia 1.5T S-a MRI systems that may delay patient evacuation during manual mode use, potentially causing treatment delays.
When using manual mode, the tabletop may not completely move in or out and result in potential delay in patient evacuation from the bore, which could result in a delay of treatment
Philips is recalling certain Ingenia 1.5T S-a MRI systems because the tabletop may not move completely in or out during manual mode, which could delay patient evacuation and treatment. This risk affects medical facilities using the equipment for diagnostic imaging.
