Recall details

Recalling firm
Toshiba American Medical Systems Inc
Reason for recall
Toshiba intitiated this recall because their investigation revealed that due to a problem of the X-ray output control software, the X-ray output conditions may not be set correctly. As a result, X-ray exposure under the scan conditions used for contrast study may not start.
Action taken
Toshiba sent an Urgent Medical Device Correction letter on October 1, 2013, via USPS return receipt mail and accompanied by a response form. The recall notification letter provided the Device Model, serial number, SID, problem, corrective action, request to customers, and contact information (800) 421-1968 or (800) 521-1968. Toshiba designed and test an upgraded ROM for the SC2 PWB to prevent recurrence of the fault. Service technicians will replace the ROM on site at no cost to the system owners. All repairs are expected to be completed by April 2014 and progress reports will be provided on the effectiveness of the plan. For questions regarding this recall call 714-730-5000.
