Siemens has become aware of potential errors that may occur while performing a biopsy. the system may freeze and biopsy functionality may become unavailable in the following situations:- drop of the compression force, e.G. this may occur due to a patient's sudden movement during the active targeting phase- use of the inversion tool while the scout image is active during the targeting phase.As a result of system freeze, the biopsy may have to be repeated.

Siemens will release a software update to resolve the issue. Siemens service engineer will contact affected customers to schedule the software update. In the interim, Siemens is advising users to follow these instructions: 1) Do not close the error message window when it is displayed. Instead, cancel the active target before closing the window. Users can start all over after the completion of these steps. 2) Users are advised not to use the inversion tool while the scout image is active. In the event of a system freeze, the acquisition workplace must be rebooted.
