GE OEC Brivo 865 Plus Mobile X-ray Laser Aimer Assemblies Recalled

GE OEC Medical Systems is recalling nine mobile X-ray laser aimer assemblies because they were shipped without required laser product certification.

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, and the source text describes a regulatory compliance issue regarding missing certification rather than a reported injury or high-risk pathogen, fitting the criteria for a moderate severity score.
