This is a device enforcement record. Check whether the remedy is a correction, a software update or a removal before changing anything.

What the notice says: The clinical CT scan may not automatically trigger after the Bolus Tracking scan and may need to be triggered manually. Additional Bolus Tracking shots may occur. This may result in the clinical acquisition being inadequate for diagnosis, causing a potential for patient rescan and receiving additional radiation.

Why it matters: The FDA recorded an enforcement action against this device. Most device recalls are corrections rather than removals, so the device often stays in use while the manufacturer issues a fix.

Philips Medical Systems — This is a device enforcement record. Check whether the remedy is a correction, a software update or a removal before changing anything.

Replacements, repairs and reimbursement

Device remedies run through the supply chain, so the route depends on who sold you the unit.

  • Contact the distributor or clinic named on your paperwork and quote the recall number on this page. They will tell you whether the remedy is a repair, a replacement or an instruction update.
  • If the device was billed to insurance or Medicare, the replacement is usually billed the same way; you should not face a second deductible for a recall.
  • Keep every piece of correspondence. If a recalled device caused harm, that paper trail is what a claim rests on.
  • Consumer-purchased devices such as monitors and test kits are normally replaced free, with return shipping paid.
