Description

Artis zee/ zeego systems, model numbers: 10094135, 10094137, 10094139, 10094141, 10280959: dedicated angiography systems developed for single and biplane diagnostic imaging and interventional procedures including, but not limited to, pediatric and obese patients.

Reason

The Small Focus of a 3 focal spot x-ray tube may fail and further release of radiation will not be possible. The Large Focus and Micro Focus focal spots will still be operational without any restriction. Manual switchover is needed, resulting in a short interruption of the procedure.
