Recall Insight

This recall's affected scope, documented in the Recall Profile below, stays within a single-region or limited-distribution footprint. Distribution scope (see Distribution below) directly affects the consumer exposure window and determines whether a recall remains regional or escalates into a nationwide advisory.

Within the same product category the archive holds 6 closely related recalls, 6 from FDA Devices - clustering in a narrow category often points to a systemic quality-control or supplier issue rather than a one-off defect. Always verify the recall number against the official agency record before acting.

Product description

NeuViz 64 Multi-slice CT Scanner System Product Usage: The Multi-Slice CT Scanner System can be used as a whole body computed tomography x-ray system featuring a continuously rotating x-ray tube and detector array. The acquired x-ray transmission data is reconstructed by computer into cross-sectional images of the body from either the same axial plane taken at different angles or spiral planes taken at different angles.

Reason for recall

Software defect: For Helical scan with ClearView function, when small arc (uninterrupted scan) occurs during scan, there will be some electromagnetic interference in the system which may affect the control signal of the flying focal spot, resulting in an incorrect flying focal spot sequence. If the system does not receive error, it would continue to complete the scan with the incorrect flying focal spot sequence, having an effect on the reconstruction of some images, resulting in image loss.
