| Title | Agreement State Report - Source Holder Gripper Malfunction |
| 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. The source was removed and the coach was sent back to Wisconsin for service at GE's facility. The Virginia Radioactive Materials Program has been working with GE regarding the cause for the failure. At this time, GE is reviewing service reports to evaluate whether this is an isolated incident. The unit was repaired and returned to Rockingham Memorial. Virginia Event Report ID: VA-13-12 |
