    LUMINOS Lotus Max (VF11)

    Reason

    Under certain unlikely circumstances during a fluoroscopic examination, the imaging system Fluorospot Compact might sporadically display an incorrect air kerma/air kerma rate related to the patient reference point, according to IEC 60601-2-43. There is no impact on workflow or diagnosis. The error can occur only in fluoroscopy systems with a second (overhead) X-ray tube.
