Product

TOSHIBA Kalare Diagnostic X-Ray System K110785

Reason

Firm initiated recall because when radiographic conditions with the small focus are set and the radiography ready switch is held down, the large focus is also heated after a few seconds or more. This occurs when the Automatic Exposure Function (AEC) function is used. As a result, a radiographic tube current exceeding the set value flows and a brighter image than expected is acquired.
