Event Description	The following information was submitted by the Commonwealth of Virginia via email: On November 25th, the Virginia Department of Health Radiological Duty Officer received a call from the General Electric (GE) service provider representative that a PET/CT machine at Rockingham Memorial failed. The representative responded and found that the source holder was open exposing the source. The representative troubleshot the holder and found that the gripper was not functioning properly.
