Issue

GE Healthcare (GEHC) MR systems could potentially have a cryogen ventilation system that does not meet the venting requirements. Failure to have proper venting could present a safety issue if the cryogen gas is vented into the MR room during a magnet quench, potentially depriving the room of oxygen.
