Reason for Recall

Due to inappropriate cleaning, some Artis systems show unexpected corrosion of visible belts which are needed to move system parts (e.g. C-Arm), Increased corrosion may lead to a malfunction of the belts which may result in limited functionality of the Artis system up to system failure. Unintended movement of the C-Arm may cause a hazardous situation to the patient, operator, or staff members and may result in a situation where it is necessary to cancel clinical treatment or to continue treatment on an alternative system
