Check your Philips Azurion 7 M20 X-ray system

Between July 2024 and June 2025, some Philips Azurion R3.0 fluoroscopic X-ray systems (model 722234) were shipped without a required safety spacer. This spacer ensures the X-ray tube maintains a safe distance from patients during standard fluoroscopy procedures, as required by FDA regulations.

  • If you operate a Philips Azurion 7 M20 system, contact Philips to verify whether your unit has the Source-to-Skin Distance (SSD) Spacer installed
  • Reference Philips notice C&R 2025-IGT-BST-016 when contacting Philips
  • Do not use the system for standard fluoroscopy if the spacer is missing until it is installed
