Leica Biosystems Imaging Recalls

Aperio CS2 CE IVD scanner instrument, scanner part #23CS100CE.

Class I - Dangerous

The incorrect sensor was used in the assembly of the camera in the scanner instrument which can potentially generate whole slide images that impact analysis algorithm results, as well as potentially impact the visual appearance of whole slide images.

HER2 Image Analysis Manual Read of HER2 Digital Slides ER/PR Image Analysis IHC PR Breast Tissue Manual Read of Digital Slides The ScanScope¿¿ System is an automated digital slide creation, management, viewing and analysis system. It is intended for in vitro diagnostic use as an aid to the pathologist in the display, detection, counting and classification of tissues and cells of clinical interest based on particular color, intensity, size, pattern and shape. The IHC HER2 Image Analysis application is intended for use as an aid to the pathologist in the detection and semi-quantitative measurement of HER2/neu (c-erbB-2) in formalin-fixed, paraffin-embedded normal and neoplastic tissue. The IHC HER2 Image Analysis application is intended for use as an accessory to the Dako HercepTest" to aid in the detection and semi-quantitative measurement of Her2/neu (c-erbB-2) in formalin-fixed, paraffin-embedded normal and neoplastic tissue. When used with the Dako HercepTest", it is indicated for use as an aid in the assessment of breast cancer patients for whom HERCEPTIN¿¿(Trastuzumab) treatment is being considered. Note: The IHC HER2 Image Analysis application is an adjunctive computer-assisted methodology to assist the reproducibility of a qualified pathologist in the acquisition and measurement of images from microscope slides of breast cancer specimens stained for the presence of HER-2 receptor protein. The accuracy of the test result depends upon the quality of the immunohistochemical staining. It is the responsibility of a qualified pathologist to employ appropriate morphological studies and controls as specified in the instructions for the Dako HercepTest" to assure the validity of the IHC HER2 Image Analysis application assisted HER-2/neu score. The actual correlation of the Dako HercepTest" to Herceptin¿¿ clinical outcome has not been established. Manual Read of HER2 Digital Slides: The ScanScope¿¿ System is an automated digital slide creation, management, viewing and analysis system. It is intended for in vitro diagnostic use as an aid to the pathologist in the display, detection, counting and classification of tissues and cells of clinical interest based on particular color, intensity, size, pattern and shape. The IHC HER2 Manual Read of Digital Slides application is intended for use as an aid to the pathologist in the detection and semi-quantitative measurement of HER-2/neu (c-erbB-2) by manual examination of the digital slide of formalin-fixed, paraffin-embedded normal and neoplastic tissue immunohistochemically stained for HER-2 receptors on a computer monitor. HER-2 results are indicated for use as an aid in the management, prognosis and prediction of therapy outcomes of breast cancer. The IHC HER2 Manual Read of Digital Slides application is intended for use as an accessory to the Dako HercepTestT to aid the pathologist in the detection and semi-quantitative measurement of HER-2/neu (c-erbB-2) by manual examination of the digital slide of formalin-fixed, paraffin-embedded normal and neoplastic tissue immunohistochemically stained for HER-2 receptors on a computer monitor. When used with the Dako HercepTestT, it is indicated for use as an aid in the assessment of breast cancer patients for whom HERCEPTIN¿¿ (Trastuzumab) treatment is being considered. Note: The actual correlation of the Dako HercepTestT to Herceptin¿¿ clinical outcome has not been established. ER/PR Image Analysis: The ScanScope¿¿ XT System is an automated digital slide creation, management, viewing and analysis system. It is intended for in vitro diagnostic use as an aid to the pathologist in the display, detection, counting and classification of tissues and cells of clinical interest based on particular color, intensity, size, pattern and shape. The IHC ER Image Analysis application is intended for use as an aid to the pathologist in the detection and quantitative measurement of ER (Estrogen Receptor) in formalin-fixed paraffin-embedded normal and neo
