Hazard: Siemens initiated a corrective action to address two possible, mutually independent causes of a system defect related to the following: - In Artis Systems with A100 Plus or A100G generators, an attempt to resume operation following detection of a fault can result in the failure of a module in the high-voltage generator. - For biplane systems delivered with software version VD11B since April of this year, software problems in conjunction with graphics card may, in rare cases, result in the loss of image display in the examination room.

Hazard: Siemens is providing software update version VA50A_SP3 to address the software bugs that were identified through normal field monitoring and the Global Complaint Handling Process. Correction for the problems are as follows: 1. Correction to volumetric misrepresentations of high contrast objects when using ADMIRE. 2. Correction to highly sporadic scan aborts due to temporarily tube currents at 0mA. 3. Correction to missing Microsoft Hotfixes (MS16-001, MS15-135, MS15-088, MS15-048). 4. Correction to highly sporadic image artifacts caused by error signals from high voltage chain at extremely high tube currents. 5. Correction to highly sporadic incomplete image reconstruction due to temporary slow hard disk write speed. 6. Correction to highly sporadic scan aborts due to temporarily high disk load of system disk. 7. Correction to highly sporadic image artifacts generated by scatter correction in case of tube arcings.

Hazard: Firm received reports about "acquisition errors" and the deterioration of material covering the articulating section of the Z6Ms transesophageal transducer.

Hazard: A problem can occur with the small light marker windows, used for the positioning laser and are integrated in the front cover of the SOMATOM Definition AS and Definition Flash systems, by either becoming loose or potentially dropping out. There is a risk that a person could touch rotating or electrical parts of the gantry if they were to reach through the window opening.

Hazard: Siemens became aware of a potential issue with the patient table for Ysio Max and Multix Fusion systems. There is an unlikely risk that an internal part of the table may detach causing the table top to tilt to the left side which could result in an injury to a patient on the table.
