Hazard
14 recalls in our database tag this hazard, drawn from FDA, USDA FSIS, CPSC, and NHTSA source notices.
Of the 14 radiation overdose recalls we have scored against our rubric, 0 (0%) are Critical — deaths or serious injuries reported, or the agency’s own highest classification — and 7 (50%) are Severe.
Hazard tags are short, machine-readable labels we attach to every recall to make cross-cutting queries possible — “all radiation overdose 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.
Siemens ARTIS One X-ray systems may deliver higher radiation doses during first imaging after patient registration due to copper prefiltration malfunction occurring in very rare situations.
Siemens ARTIS icono angiography systems with specific detector configurations may deliver higher radiation doses than intended in rare cases. The issue occurs during the first X-ray exposure after patient registration.
Siemens ARTIS icono angiography systems with certain detectors may deliver higher-than-intended radiation doses in rare cases. The issue occurs when incorrect copper prefiltration is applied during initial x-ray exposure after patient registration.
RayStation versions 8.0.0.61 and 8.0.1.10 are subject to a Class II FDA recall due to a potential for calculated skin surface doses to be reported as too high. Healthcare facilities using these versions should contact the manufacturer for guidance and a corrective update.
The Proteus235 Proton Therapy System may deliver radiation to initial treatment fields with incorrect scanning magnet settings. The radiation field may be smaller than expected and may deliver higher dose than prescribed.
Shimadzu FLUOROspeed X1 fluoroscopy systems may deliver radiation doses exceeding federal regulatory limits in specific fluoroscopic operating modes due to inadequate installation adjustment criteria.
Shimadzu Medical Systems recalls 176 SonialVision G4 X-ray systems that may emit radiation doses exceeding federal standards in some fluoroscopic mode cases. No injuries have been reported.
Siemens Medical Solutions is recalling specific MEVATRON radiation therapy systems due to a potential safety issue with dose monitoring interlocks that could result in a 10-20% radiation overdose.
Siemens is recalling specific ONCOR radiation therapy systems due to a potential safety issue with dose monitoring interlocks that could result in a 10-20% overdose.
Siemens is recalling ARTISTE MV Systems due to a potential safety issue with dose monitoring interlocks that could result in a 10-20% radiation therapy overdose.
Siemens is recalling PRIMUS HI linear accelerators because a safety interlock defect could cause a 10-20% overdose of radiation therapy.
Elekta is recalling MOSAIQ Oncology Information Systems because missing wedge IDs may cause patients to receive higher radiation doses than planned.
RaySearch Laboratories is recalling RayStation treatment planning software versions 4.5 through 8A because a calculation error could lead to significant radiation overdosage during therapy.
Siemens Medical Solutions is recalling 320 linear accelerators because unauthorized third-party components may cause patient or operator injury and dose calculation errors.
