Hazard
Siemens became aware that the front cover on some Siemens CT system was not properly welded. It is possible for the welded-in threaded bolt to break out of the ground plate of the front cover if the cover is opened during service. This could not happen during clinical operation. Therefore, there is no potential risk for the user or patient and the CT System has no risk for a malfunction during clinical operation
