Action
Consignees were notified of the recall by letter sent May 2014. They were instructed to do the following: Do not perform planning or review planning of transversal images on fused sagittal images which were generated through Mobi View postprocessing Instead, review the planning of transversal scans only on the unfused stations. A Field Change Order with reference FC0781 00431 is being released that PHILIPS requires Philips field service engineers to disable the MobiView post processing software. When possible this will be done remotely. Once it becomes available, a software update will be installed which will address the reference line positioning issue with MobiView Should you need to communicate with Philips with regard to this program, please reference FC0781 00431. If you need any further information or support concerning this issue, please contact your local Philips representative or the Technical Support Line: 1-800-722-9377.
