    Philips Healthcare Inc. sent out "Urgent --Medical Device Correction" notices dated June 10, 2011 to all affected customers. The letter described the product and problem. Customers were informed the "burned-in Mirror-Icon" may be misinterpreted as a Right marker. Customers are advised to preferably use lead markers during each X-ray acquisition or alternatively electronic annotations on each image for side indication. The presentation of these markers within each image will clearly show the difference between the intended Left/Right indication and the little mirror ICON. Philips will install improved software that prevents the misinterpretation of the symbol and will schedule the installation of the updated software.
