Reason/Issue |
A firmware anomaly inside the detector (PX4343RG) can cause the detector to appear ready for acquisition on very short time intervals while it actually is not ready. This may result in an inadequate acquisition of the X-ray image. If a corrupted image cannot be used for its clinical purpose, it may be necessary to retake with additional exposure. |
