Plain-English summary
Philips North America is recalling the Ingenia 3.0T CX Model MRI machines (Model Numbers 781271 and 782105). This recall affects 1 unit distributed in the United States and 347 units distributed outside the United States.
The Quadrature Body Coil (QBC) seal adhesive used in these devices may fail during operation. When the seal becomes loose, it can create sharp edges that come into contact with patients during scanning.
Patients may experience skin abrasions, bruises, lacerations, hair loss or entanglement, and tissue injury if the loose coil seal contacts them during the scanning process.
If you operate or maintain one of these devices, contact Philips North America for repair or replacement instructions. Do not use the device until the seal failure issue has been resolved.
