Reason for Recall

The terminal block used to secure the power supply cable for the gradient coil of the MRI system was not secured as designed, which could cause cable disconnection, which could lead to arcing, followed by melting of the cable, ignition, smoke, and fire.

• Class II: Risk 12/19/2025
  There is a potential for formation of ice occurring in the venting system of the superconducting magnet of the MRI systems. if a quench occurs in this condition, helium gas may not be able to escape via the designed vent paths, and the pressure in the helium vessel may rise. This pressure build-up could eventually rupture the helium vessel, causing helium gas to be released into the MR scanning room.
• Class II: Risk 12/19/2025
  It has been discovered that there is a possibility that the fixing screws of the ceiling movement gear in the ceiling suspended arm that are part of the X-ray interventional systems may become loose. As a result, ceiling lateral movement may no longer be possible, abnormal noise may be generated from the suspension system and a sensor error may be displayed
