Recall Details
- Company:
- Shanghai United Imaging Healthcare Co., Ltd.
- Reason for Recall:
- Two issues were identified with the computed tomography x-ray system including a service function which may cause false marking of a bad channel resulting in ring artifacts, and potential intermittent scout scanning interruption due to occasional angle signal drift.. If these problems occur, it may be necessary to rescan the patient resulting in an additional dose of radiation and the possible need for additional contrast medium.
- Classification:
- Class I - Dangerous
Dangerous or defective products that predictably could cause serious health problems or death.
- Status:
- ongoing

The wireless VSM module of a mobile PET/CT system, operating in an environment with strong Wi-Fi signals, may experience ECG signal and respiratory signal loss due to Wi-Fi interference. ECG and respiratory signal loss during acquisition can result in the failure of ECG and respiratory-gated reconstruction of the PET scan, which may require rescanning of the patient.
