Summary

GE OEC Medical Systems, Inc. has recalled approximately 287 OEC 3D, OEC Elite, OEC 9900, and OEC 9800 mobile fluoroscopic X-ray systems due to a manufacturing defect. The X-ray tubes in these systems may have been insufficiently sealed, which can lead to oil leaks and a sudden loss of imaging capabilities. This failure could occur during diagnostic or surgical procedures. No injuries or incidents have been reported to date.

Risk

An oil leak in the X-ray tube can cause the system to lose its ability to provide fluoroscopic imaging. This unexpected failure during a surgical or interventional procedure could lead to significant delays or the need for alternative imaging solutions while a patient is under care.
