OTHERNationwide distributionMedical devices

What this means

Certain Philips Azurion fluoroscopy systems may experience mechanical wear in the Float Tabletop control, which could impair the longitudinal and transverse (side-to-side and front-to-back) movement of the examination table. This wear could affect the system's ability to position patients correctly during imaging procedures.

  • If you operate or maintain one of the affected Azurion models, contact Philips Medical Systems Nederland B.V. for service guidance.
  • Do not continue using the system if table movement becomes difficult or unresponsive.
  • Check the FDA or manufacturer website for available corrective actions or software updates.
