Philips Medical Imaging Systems Recalled for Measurement Export Error
Philips is recalling 157 medical imaging systems because a software option prevents correct export of measurement data to external destinations.
What this means for you
Minor labeling or packaging issue, or a voluntary precautionary recall. Risk of harm is low but real — follow the manufacturer's instructions.
Our severity reasoning: The recall is classified as FDA Class II, but the source text explicitly states no illnesses or injuries are reported, and the hazard is a data export error rather than a direct physical risk, fitting the criteria for a moderate severity score.

Philips Electronics North America Corporation is recalling 157 units of specific medical imaging systems, including the Azurion 3 M12, Azurion 3 M15, Allura R9 7 M12, Allura R9 M20, Azurion 7 M12, and Azurion 7 M20. These devices are intended for use on human patients for vascular, cardiovascular, and neurovascular imaging applications, as well as diagnostic and interventional procedures.

The affected units were distributed worldwide and nationwide in the United States.
Healthcare facilities should contact Philips for instructions on how to resolve the issue. The source text does not report any illnesses or injuries associated with this defect.
