MAGNETOM Cima.XRecalls & reported problems across all models

We found 2 models of MAGNETOM Cima.X by Siemens Healthcare GmbH in the FDA's device registry (GUDID). None of them is named in an adverse event report in our data.

3 FDA recall records name at least one of these models by its device identifier, 3 still open.

Reports come from manufacturers, hospitals and patients and are not verified by the FDA. A report does not prove the device caused the event. Widely used products collect more reports, so totals can't be used to compare products or estimate failure rates. Only reports that name a model's exact device identifier are counted.

   There is a potential for an ice blockage to form or currently exist within the primary and/or the auxiliary venting paths of the magnet helium containment venting system. In the event of a quench when both venting paths are blocked, helium gas may be unable to escape through the designed venting paths, leading to a pressure build-up within the helium containment system. This pressure build-up could ultimately rupture the helium containment system, potentially resulting in a helium leak into the scanning room.

   In some cases, when lubricating grease is present within the headband of the over-ear headphones, it may cause visible, dot- or lineshaped, fat-isointense artifacts during head examinations only. These potential artifacts depend on the position of the headband, the amount of lubricating grease, as well as the sequence parameters used
