IMRIS Operating Suite, Neuro III-SV iMRI System, iMRX System, containing Siemens 3 Tesla MRI Magnet, Verio

Reason / hazard

There is a potential safety issue associated with the magnet venting paths of the Siemens 3 Tesla MRI system within your IMRIS Operating Suite. Siemens notified IMRIS that an ice blockage may exist within the magnet venting system. In the event of a quench, helium gas may be unable to escape through the designed vent paths, leading to a pressure build-up within the helium containment system which could ultimately rupture the helium containment system, potentially resulting in a helium leak into the scanning room.
