Figure 1 Siemens artis fluoroscopy suite.
The table is set up for an upper gastrointestinal (GI) study. Note the relationship of the image intensifier to the table (arrows). The most likely cause of the infections was contamination of the image intensifier and fluoroscopy table during these studies with inadequate cleaning of the suite between GI procedures and arthrograms.
