Reported risk: Philips has become aware that memory problems on the Embedded Technology eXtended (ETX®)-module in the system interface board (SIB) box cause intermittent failures. The SIB box plays a role in starting and stopping and controlling the image functionality. Although highly intermittently, the failure can occur both during start up as well as during system use. The failure does not affect an active X-ray run and the run can be finished. However, no new run can be started until the system is rebooted. As such, the failure has no impact on the critical moment in a critical procedure.
