NM/CT 870 DR Nuclear Medicine / CT Scanners

Official recall recorded by the U.S. Food & Drug Administration.

The hazard

GE Healthcare has become aware of a potential issue on 800 family NM/CT Scanners that could cause a shift in CT radiation exposure range of up to 5cm compared to the intended radiation exposure range of the planned scan under specific workflows. The issue occurs only on a hybrid whole-body continuous F3 protocol with Zoom < 1 where the scan range is set on the Smart Console. In some cases, this may also necessitate a re-scan of the patient, which would expose the patient to additional X-ray radiation.
