  • Notes supplémentaires dans les données
  • Cause
    A software issue exists when using list mode replay feature, such that subsequent reconstructions with that data could contribute to an image with scatter over-estimation and overcorrection artifacts which may be presented as 'black background' and creates an apparent perfusion defect. reconstructed images with this issue will have many fewer counts than the acquired scan data and a high scatter fraction. this issue may affect studies that use list mode replay and are reconstructed after subsequent acquisitions. this issue may lead to image misinterpretation and/or inaccurate treatment decisions.
  • Action
    GE Healthcare is providing users with work around instructions to follow as an interim measure. A software upgrade will be performed as a permanent fix.
