All systems sold to customers in the US that leave GEHC Surgery (the place of manufacture) are configured to display AKR / CAK when they leave the factory. An FSE changing the dose display, per the customer request, to display DAP instead does not comply to 21CFR 1020.32(k), which requires fluoroscopic equipment manufactured on or after June 10, 2006 to display continuous updates of AKR and CAK values.

Reason
Issue #1 affects Software Versions 6.0 SP7, SP7.0.1, SP7.0.2, SP7.0.3, SP8, SP8.0.1, SP8.0.a and SP8.0.2. When an image is flipped horizontally and vertically, the orientation markers appear correctly on the image to which they were applied. However, once new image rendering happens on this image or series (with scrolling; playing cin¿; maximizing or changing viewports/layouts; or synchronizing viewports and resizing the browser), the new image orientation is correctly maintained but the display of orientation markers can become incorrect. Issue #2 affects Software Versions 6.0 SP7, SP7.0.1, SP7.0.2, SP7.0.3, SP8, SP8.0.1, SP8.0.a, SP8.0.2, SP9 and SP9.0.1. When an image in a series is flipped and then rotated in Zero Footprint Viewer (ZFP), the orientation markers appear correctly on the image to which they were applied. However, once you navigate to another image in the series and the image you navigated to has a different orientation than the prior image from which you navigated, the new image orientation is correctly maintained but the display of orientation markers can become incorrect.

A database handling error could occur during the image acquisition process affecting the completeness of acquired images with Centricity PACS-IW. There is a potential that one or more image series (i.e. all images within an image set) may be missing from an exam without indication to the user. While this is rare, this can occur with imaging studies that consist of a very small number of images per series. E.g. CR Thorax exam with 1 image per series.
