NCMDR Recall
Reference Number: mdprc 077 05 12 000
Date submitted: 5/28/2012
Manufacturer:Philips Medical Systems
Device Type:All DigitalDiagnost (with release 2.0.2 and 2.0.2SP1
Description:Image, PACS system
Medical Device Identifier:12NC: 989001083902 Software ReI. 2.0.2 (4512201 06094) Software ReI. 2.0.2SP1 (451220106095) Software ReI. 2.0.2SP1 with OS SP4 (4512 201 06096)
Reason of Field Safety Corrective Action:With DigitalDiagnost (DiDi) R 2.0.2 a mirrored "R in a circle" is burnt into the DESCRIPTION image (if mirrored) in the lower right corner of the image. When such an image is mirrored back inside the PACS system, an unmirrored "R in a circle" appears in the lower left corner. This can be mistaken for a "right patient side" marker, although this can appear on the left patient side.
Remedy Action:Philips plans to supply a software update solving the described mirror icon problem. A Philips Service Engineer will contact you as soon as the Field Action Kit is ready to be implemented.
