The field service engineer investigated this incident on october 27, 2017.He inspected the table and tested it for drift.He was unable to verify the drift symptoms.After he removed the covers of the table, he observed some small hydraulic fluid leakage from the manifold area.This could potentially be the underlying cause of the drift.The field service engineer will be replacing the leaking hydraulic component(s) and performing functional testing to verify proper operation after the repair has been completed.

Event Description
|
The procedure had been successfully performed and mr imaging was completed.Hospital personnel were moving the magnet away from the table when they noticed contact between the head fixation device, which was attached to the table, and the bore of the magnet.This contact was not evident when the magnet was initially moved over the table and they assumed that the table drifted slightly downward.They lifted up on the back section of the table a small amount to eliminate the contact and then continued moving the magnet away from the table.There was no report of patient injury.
