Initial reporter's telephone number is: (b)(6). Siemens has completed a technical investigation of the reported event. The analysis of the siemens ct logfiles do not show a malfunction of siemens-manufactured portion of the system. The siemens ct system performed as specified. The log file review also revealed that the non-siemens injector did not generate an error, hence the reason why there was no error message in the ct logfile. Further siemens investigation is not warranted at this time.
