This restoration includes actions such as repair, rework, software/hardware updates, and the replacement of worn parts with original parts. This document enumerates the actions that must be performed and the manner consistent with product specifications and service procedures required to ensure that the refurbishment of medical imaging equipment is done without changing the finished medical imaging equipment’s performance, safety specifications, or intended use according to its original or applicable valid registration.”
