Recall Details
- Company:
- RAYSEARCH LABORATORIES AB
- Reason for Recall:
- Software anomaly; an issue was found with the proton Pencil Beam Scanning (PBS) dose calculation in RayStation 4.0, 4.5, 4.7 and 5.0. For treatment plans with a combination of range shifter, large air gap and beams that enter the patient surface at an oblique angle, the dose calculation accuracy may be less than expected.
- Classification:
- Class I - Dangerous
Dangerous or defective products that predictably could cause serious health problems or death.
- Status:
- terminated

Potential for the invalidation for calculated radiation dose does not work as intended for certain Regions of Interest (ROIs). This issue occurs for some ROI(s) which have no contours and either have a material override defined, or are of type Bolus, Fixation, or Support. In these cases, adding geometry to the ROI, subsequently modifying geometry, or removing the material override does not invalidate dose as intended.
