GE Healthcare nuclear medicine systems recalled for detector support risk
GE Healthcare nuclear medicine systems including Infinia II Hawkeye 4 may have been transported without proper detector support, risking detector failure and serious injury.
What this means for you
Real risk of harm even if no illness or injury has been reported yet. Stop using the product and follow the agency's guidance.
Our severity reasoning: FDA Class II recall involving risk of serious bodily injury from detector fall. The source text does not report any actual injuries or hospitalizations; the hazard is theoretical but involves potential life-threatening harm.
Plain-English summary
GE Healthcare is recalling certain Infinia II Hawkeye 4 and related nuclear medicine and CT imaging systems (approximately 845 units distributed worldwide) because they may have been transported or relocated without proper detector support during shipment or installation.
When proper detector support is absent during transportation, excessive load can be applied to the detector mounting mechanisms. This can result in detector failure and fall, potentially leading to life-threatening bodily injury to operators or patients near the equipment.
The affected systems have been distributed worldwide. No injuries have been reported to date. Facility managers should verify that proper detector support procedures are followed whenever any affected system is transported, relocated, or reinstalled.
