GE Medical Systems, LLC has recalled several models of Magnetic Resonance (MR) imaging systems, including the Discovery MR750w 3.0T, SIGNA Architect, and SIGNA PET/MR. Approximately 66 units are affected by this recall because the gradient coils can produce elevated levels of acoustic noise during scanning under specific conditions. While no incidents or injuries have been reported, the excessive noise can cause patient discomfort or potential hearing issues. Facilities using these systems are being notified to take corrective actions.
The defect in the gradient coils causes the imaging system to generate sound levels that are louder than intended. This increased acoustic noise poses a potential risk of auditory discomfort or hearing impairment for patients during their MRI scans.
