What happened

Siemens Medical Solutions USA, Inc. is recalling 373 Artis zee biplane X-ray systems (Model Number 10094141) distributed nationwide. The systems have a defect in their cooling circuit that may allow coolant levels to drop below safe operating levels. When this occurs, the X-ray tube does not receive sufficient cooling, and the system displays a "TUBE HOT, have a break" message. Several minutes later, the system automatically blocks X-ray function and displays "NO XRAY: TUBE TOO HOT" to prevent equipment damage.

The recall affects specific serial numbers listed in the recall notice, which can be identified using the UDI 4056869010069. The source document does not specify what actions affected consumers or facilities should take in response to this recall.
