There is a potential for components to be damaged inside the system gantry and for the internal components to be expelled from the system gantry and injure the patient, operator, bystander or service people.
On 6/23/08/08, the Philips Neusoft sent a letter dated 6/10/08 to their US customers explaining the problem, under what circumstances it can occur, and the actions that should be taken by the customer/user in order to prevent risks for patients or users.

The letter included additional information to customers who had already received the field action (this was an on-going activity that was re-classified as a potential safety).

They were informed that they would be contacted by Newsoft Medical systems representative for the planning of this repair.
