Reason
Siemens is releasing a performance update (XP050/15/P) to fix intermittent errors during TOMO Reconstruction with objects larger than 90mm on the MAMMOMAT Inspiration system. The problem occurs because of a software bug in the memory management of the graphics card memory. Siemens field service reps will install new software version VB30P to correct the issue.
