Reason

Siemens identified an issue with a patient table which was caused by a manufacturing error. There is an unlikely risk that an internal part of the table may detach causing the table top to tilt to the left side which could result in an injury to a patient on the table. This issue was identified during the installation of a patient table and this is the only known table with this problem. Siemens is initiating steps to determine if the same problem exists on other patient tables.
