    Description

    AXIOM ARTIS MODULAR ANGIOGRAPHY SYSTEM, system, x-ray, angiographic AXIOM Artis, Artis zee / zeego and Artis Q/ Q.zen are 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. Procedures that can be performed with the AXIOM Artis, Artis zee / zeego and Artis Q/ Q.zen family include cardiac angiography, neuro angiography, general angiography, rotational angiography, operating room angiography, multipurpose angiography and whole body radiographic/fluoroscopic procedures. AXIOM Artis, Artis zee / zeego and Artis Q/ Q.zen systems can also support the acquisition of position triggered imaging for spatial data synthesis.

    Reason

    The possibility exists for contaminants, in the form of biomass, to develop in the cooling system of Artis systems resulting in damage to the pump system.
