Dimension Vista Myoglobin Calibrator (MYO CAL) may produce a positive shift in MYO QC and Patient test results that exceeds acceptance criteria for this product. A positive shift observed up to 12% at MYO concentrations within and above the reference range of the assay. Depending on quality control limits, this drift may not be detected.

The Siemens Symbia T series is intended for use by appropriately trained health care professionals to aid in detecting, localizing, diagnosing, staging and restaging of lesions, tumors, disease and organ function for the evaluation of diseases and disorders such as, but not limited to, cardiovascular disease, neurological disorders and cancer. The images produced by the system can also be used by the physician to aid in radiotherapy treatment planning and interventional radiology procedures. SPECT: The SPECT component is intended to detect or image the distribution of radionuclides in the body or organ (physiology), using the following techniques: planar imaging, whole body imaging, and tomographic imaging for isotopes with energies up to 588 keV. CT: The CT component is intended to produce cross-sectional images of the body by computer reconstruction of x-ray transmission data (anatomy) from either the same axial plane taken at different angles or spiral planes taken at different angles. SPECT+CT: The SPECT and CT components used together acquire SPECT/CT images. The SPECT images can be corrected for attenuation with the CT images, and can be combined (image registration) to merge the patients physiological (SPECT) and anatomical (CT) images. Software: The syngo MI Applications software is a display and analysis package intended to aid the clinician in the assessment and quantification of pathologies in images produced from SPECT, PET, CT, and other imaging modalities.

In certain cases, an INRatio PT/INR Monitor system may provide an INR result that is significantly lower than a result obtained using a reference INR system (laboratory method). This issue can arise if the patient has certain medical conditions. It can also occur if the instructions in the labeling for performing the test are not followed.

The Symbia Intevo Excel is a non-diagnostic SPECT ICT system with CT support for only attenuation correction and anatomical localization. The Symbia Intevo Series are xSPECT systems. These are SPECT and T systems integrated through xSPECT technology during image registration and reconstruction. This xSPECT integration enables the use of extra-modal information for high image quality and quantification. The Siemens Symbia series is intended for use by appropriately trained health care professionals to aid in detecting, localizing, diagnosing, staging and restaging of lesions, tumors, disease and organ function for the evaluation of diseases and disorders such as, but not limited to, cardiovascular disease, neurological disorders and cancer. The images produced by the system can also be used by the physician to aid in radiotherapy treatment planning and interventional radiology procedures. SPECT: To detect or image the distribution of radionuclides in the body or organ, using the following techniques: planar imaging, whole body imaging, tomographic imaging for isotopes with energies up to 5S8keV. CT: The CT component is intended to produce cross-sectional images of the body by computer reconstruction of x-ray transmission data from either the same axial plane taken at different angles or spiral planes taken at different angles. SPECT+CT: Perform CT scans and nuclear imaging studies with the same instrument. To obtain attenuation corrected images and to provide registration of anatomical and physiological images within the patient's anatomy. Software: The MI Applications software is a display and analysis package intended to aid the clinician in the assessment and quantification of pathologies taken from SPECT, PET, CT and other imaging modalities.

Heart Sync Multi-function defibrillation electrodes will not connect with Philips FR3 or FRx AED units. The FRx AED unit requires the pads to be pre-connected, and will issue a continuous alarm chirp to alert the user that the proper pads are not connected to the unit prior to use. The FR3, however, does not require pre-connection and the user may not discover the incompatibility issue until the
