Additional Manufacturer Narrative
|
|
Siemens has completed an investigation of the reported event.The root cause was determined to be a hardware error.The investigation was performed considering complaint description, cs reports, system history, and system log files.Log file investigation showed a can error and collimator problems which indicate an issue with the can cable.The "bypass" mode is a mitigation for this kind of failure scenario so that a procedure can be aborted in a controlled manner if necessary.The affected part was replaced by the regional service organization which resolved the problem.The occurrence rate of the error pattern was checked.A possible error accumulation or even a systematic error, which leads to a corrective action of the installed base, could not be determined by the investigation.After detailed investigation, the incident is not classified as a reportable event as neither serious injury, death nor an unexpected, prolonged hospitalization of the patient or any other person occurred or could be expected.
