RECALLING FIRM/MANUFACTURER
GE Healthcare, Waukesha, WI, by letters on July 10, 2007. Firm initiated recall is complete.
REASON
Inaccurate cassette size display reading/ Inaccurate mAs reading: 1. When the device is in PBL mode and a larger film cassette is inserted into the table Bucky (replacing a smaller cassette) after a protocol is selected on the console, the collimator will not adjust to the larger cassette size. The collimator stays at the original smaller cassette size and allows the operator to take an exposure. 2. The light X-ray film may report higher than actual mAs readings, than what was actually exposed to the patient.
