Reason

When running a Multi-tube Worklist, there is a slight possibility that a Listmode file may be duplicated. When this happens, the next tube on the worklist is skipped (not sampled). Subsequent tubes on the worklist are processed correctly. The duplicated listmode file contains all of the correct data events and FCS keyword information but will have the skipped tube's Listmode filename assigned to it. Therefore any panel report generated from the skipped tube may have erroneous but credible results.
