GE Healthcare recalls Revolution CT systems due to potential scan group name input errors causing failed image acquisition. Affected units may not confirm scan groups are added correctly, risking incomplete imaging. Contact GE for details.
When adding one or more intended scan groups names must contain only letters, numbers (0-9), or a space or the user interface will not update to confirm the intended group(s) has been added to the acquisition.
GE Healthcare is recalling Revolution CT scanners because users might enter scan group names with invalid characters, causing the system to fail updating scan groups. This could lead to incomplete medical imaging, but the risk is low since it's a software input error rather than a physical hazard.
The system requires scan group names to contain only letters, numbers, or spaces. If invalid characters are used, the system won't confirm the scan group is added, potentially causing incomplete imaging. This is a software input error that doesn: t cause physical harm but could affect image quality.
Medical facilities using GE Healthcare Revolution CT scanners are most likely affected. Patients and staff using these scanners for CT imaging may be impacted if scan group names are entered incorrectly.
