The Signa Infinity System is indicated for use as a diagnostic imaging device to produce transverse, sagittal, coronal and oblique images, spectroscopic images, and/or spectra, dynamic images of the internal structures and organs of the entire body, including but not limited to, head, neck, TMJ, spine, breast, heart, abdomen, pelvis, joints, prostate, blood vessels, and musculoskeletal regions of the body. The images produced by the Signa Infinity systems reflect the spatial distribution of protons (hydrogen nuclei) exhibiting magnetic resonance. These images and/or spectra when interpreted by a trained physician yield information that may assist in diagnosis.
Screen save images are included in wrong exam due to duplicate UID creation. This may cause a safety issue due to a potential patient data mismatch.While the issue has only been observed at one customer site  on the Signa HDxT 1.5T system, internal investigation revealed that the issue also impacts multiple GE healthcare MR Systems.

GE LightSpeed CT750 HD   The GE LightSpeed CT750 HD Computed Tomography X-ray system is intended to produce cross-sectional images of the body by computer reconstruction of x-ray transmission data taken at different angles and planes, including Axial, Cine, Helical (Volumetric), Cardiac, Spectral, and Gated acquisitions for all ages.
GE Healthcare conducted a recall involving 2 events affecting the GE LightSpeed CT750 HD. Event 1 - There was a report regarding CT number variance in time line at posterior fossa region of head perfusion. When beam hardening and helical artifacts in this region are reconstructed into the perfusion map, these artifacts will give subtle differences in the CT numbers. Event 2 - The software does not flip S DICOM coordinates when it fills in the DICOM header for tilted images using the Recon Flip/Rotate top-bottom flip (FTB). The images created are stored with an incorrect coordinate value, which incorrectly puts the image in the wrong plane causing the image coordinates annotated on a viewer to be incorrect.
