Action
Siemens issued a Customer Safety Advisory Notice to customers via CT072/19 on 9/24/2019. The letter identifies the problem, health risk and action to take: To avoid this issue, please refrain from using the i-Sequence scan mode in combination with the 3x3 mm collimation until this issue has been solved. Please use the i-Sequence with the 3x5 mm collimation instead, as here the correct dose information will be shown. This issue will be resolved with an improved software version syngo CT VA20A_SP2b. The software update will be released, free of charge, with the update CT073/19/S for all affected systems. The software update release is planned for Q3/2019. All future service packs will contain the update as well. Questions: contact service organization at 1-800-888-7436.
