Reason for recall

There is a potential hardware error for the iMRX System with a generator A100. A tolerance issue in the power supply of the generator control above a specific value may cause generator A100 failure. As a result, the X-ray tube will not be supplied with the required voltage and X-ray will not be possible

Device recalls are issued when a component, software or design fault could cause the device to fail or give wrong readings. Many are corrections applied in the field rather than physical returns.

Product as listed by the FDA

iMRX MRI and Angiography System, part number 10094137 and 10094141, a surgical/interventional suite with integrated MRI and X-ray angiography. The IMRIS iMRX system is the integration of a Siemens Artis zee family (biplane or floor or ceiling mounted single plane) and the IMRIS Neuro 3T System. The System is a solution providing MRI scanning capabilities in the angiography room while retaining all functionality of Siemens Artis zee system. The System includes a traditional MRI unit that has been suspended on an overhead rail system, and is designed to operate inside RF room to facilitate intra-operative, interventional, and multi-room imaging. It also allows intra-operative or interventional imaging capabilities, while retaining all diagnostic functionality of a standard MRI system in the diagnostic room. The iMRX system allows for the sequential use of either MR imaging or X-ray fluoroscopic imaging of the head or chest for a single patient while positioned on a common fixed table either prior to, during or post clinical procedure. When these images are interpreted by a trained physician, they may assist in diagnosis during either neurovascular or cardiovascular interventionsa procedures. The iMRX system is designed such that the imaging sub-systems cannot operate simultaneously and only in accordance with their respective cleared intended use.
