Reason
Philips has identified an issue with the front gantry cover from a particular supplier, which may impact the front gantry cover of your CT system. Some covers from this supplier may develop a problem where the fiberglass weakens at the connection point to the gantry frame causing the front cover to separate from the gantry frame, allowing it to fall.
