Recall Action Instructions |
As an interim measure, Philips is advising users to manually rotate an image with the rotation tool and to use a L/R lead marker to mark the patient side permanently in the image instead of using the automatic L/R markers from the EPX-database. Philips will implement a software update to solve this issue. |
