    Description

    AXIOM Artis zee/zeego, system, x-ray, angiographic Product Usage: AXIOM Artis zee and Q/Q.zen is a family of dedicated angiography systems developed for single and biplane diagnostic imaging and interventional procedures including, but not limited to, pediatric and obese patients.

    Reason

    Due to a leak in the cooling system, fluids could potentially seep into the equipment cabinet. Loss of coolant can result in a cooling system failure and subsequent system failure. This leak can occur sporadically in affected systems.
