Product Description

GE Centricity PACS Workstation, versions 3.1.1.x through 3.2.1.x Picture Archiving and Communication System Used as a primary diagnostic and analysis tool for diagnostic images by trained healthcare professionals, including radiologists, physicians, technologists, clinicians and nurses. Also used as a clinical review workstation throughout the healthcare facility. The workstation interface provides the user with a means to display, manipulate, archive, print and export images when connected with the Centricity PACS infrastructure.

Reason for Recall

While merging exams in a test instance, merges carry forward in the production system, when the middle tier is configured to the wrong IP address of the Centricity Exam Manager. When a current and historical exam are opened at the same time, the system asynchronously tries to access the operation specifying how each image should be grouped, causing random image-series grouping errors.

Distribution Pattern

Worldwide distribution including US nationwide, Puerto Rico, Australia, Austria, Belgium, Bermuda, CANADA, Denmark, Egypt, ENGLAND, France, Germany, India, Ireland, Hong Kong, Korea, Kuwait, Italy, Malta, Netherlands, Portugal, Qatar, Saudi Arabia, SCOTLAND, South Africa, South Korea, Spain, Sweden, Switzerland, Thailand, Turkey, and UK.
