Reason

Carestream Health has identified an issue with the DRX-Revolution Mobile X-Ray system that could result in separation of the tube and yoke assembly. Carestream found a single device where four screws in the assembly were not applied in the manufacturing process. To date, Carestream has found only a single system where this failure has occurred and considers it unlikely that there are other DRX-Revolution Mobile X-ray systems where this step was missed. There was no injury associated with this failure.
