Why these products were recalled

When deleting a previously entered custom isotope, the software deletes the isotope, but not the associated dial setting. Possible other stored custom isotopes may then have incorrect dial settings and may lead to an incorrect dose measurement and/or misadministration

The agency’s own wording, quoted from the enforcement report.

The unit total adds up the quantities the agency stated for each product. Where a product record gave no figure, or gave a weight rather than a count, it contributes nothing — so the real total is at least this, never less.
