What this means for you

Real risk of harm even if no illness or injury has been reported yet. Stop using the product and follow the agency's guidance.

Plain-English summary

Fujifilm Medical Systems U.S.A., Inc. is recalling three units of the FUJIFILM FDR Visionary Suite with CH-200. The FDR Visionary Suite is a digital radiography system intended to generate digital or conventional radiographic images of the skull, spinal column, chest, abdomen, extremities, and other body parts. The specific issue involves the X-ray tube ceiling unit CH-200.

The recall is due to a potential issue where cracks may occur over time on the tube holding shaft near the base of the tube mounting flange. The X-ray tube assembly is mounted to this flange, which is part of the tube holding shaft. This defect could compromise the structural integrity of the mounting system.

The recall affects three units distributed in the United States. The specific serial numbers for the affected systems are MP95A9F6B001, MP95A9F6A001, and MP95A8F5A001. Users of these devices should contact Fujifilm Medical Systems U.S.A., Inc. for further instructions on how to address the potential cracking issue.
