MULTIX IMPACT

Reason

Siemens has identified some issues with the generator voltage settings on the multix impact device. Due to unstable kV output, the machine may produce image not applicable for clinical use. Therefore, radiation exposure may need to be repeated. The voltage settings will be checked by Siemens engineer and corrected if found to be necessary.
