PRODUCT
Siemens syngo.plaza Radiological Image Processing System Usage: Radiological Image Processing System. Recall Number Z-0465-2013
REASON
Firm has become aware of an unintended behavior when using syngo.plaza and issued an Update Instruction. The Update Instruction SY050/12/S provides a software update and addresses the following issues: – Patient Rename messages for the same patient are being continually processed for several days. This fills up the ‘pcvdbsrv’ log and potentially affects performance of the system. – Data could remain unprotected and not archived leading to a potential data loss. – System crashes when user tries to delete a self created spine labeling step. – For datasets with corrupt PR objects, not all images are loaded to Viewer and no Ferro message is displayed for the user. – Within the online “Short Time Storage” (STS), some studies are marked with an archived icon, however, the entry in the Archive Database referring to the physical file may be missing. – Viewer crashes during load of next patient. Error is related to ‘Next Patient’ from RIS.
