Hazard
2 recalls in our database tag this hazard, drawn from FDA, USDA FSIS, CPSC, and NHTSA source notices.
Of the 2 excessive tissue heating recalls we have scored against our rubric, 0 (0%) are Critical — deaths or serious injuries reported, or the agency’s own highest classification — and 0 (0%) are Severe.
Hazard tags are short, machine-readable labels we attach to every recall to make cross-cutting queries possible — “all excessive tissue heating recalls regardless of agency”, “all listeria recalls in California”, “all airbag recalls in 2025”. The tags are extracted from each recall’s source text during the LLM rewrite step and validated against a fixed schema.
A recall can carry multiple tags — a Listeria recall might also be tagged ready-to-eat and undeclared-allergen. Use the full-text search if you want to combine hazard tags with brand or category filters.
GE Healthcare's Optima MR360 MRI systems may allow unsafe RF energy exposure if a scan resumes after power loss. The user interface can incorrectly enable scanning when tissue-heating levels exceed safe limits.
GE SIGNA MR380 NMRI systems may allow scans to resume when the 6-minute average SAR (tissue heating rate) exceeds safe limits, potentially causing excessive tissue heating especially in patients with implants or conductive contact.
