GE Healthcare, Discovery MR750w

Official recall recorded by the U.S. Food & Drug Administration.

The hazard

GE Healthcare has recently become aware of a potential safety issue with the patient bore heating on the Discovery MR750w. A small area on the bore surface, which is normally accessible to the patient, can get warm enough to cause a serious burn in the event the patient touches the bore and proper padding is not used. No injury has been reported to GE as a result of this issue.
