Siemens Biograph TruePoint PET/CT Scanner Recall for Calibration Error
Siemens Medical Solutions is recalling four Biograph TruePoint PET/CT scanners due to a risk of unexpected SUV values when using non-Siemens phantoms for calibration.
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 does not report any hospitalizations, injuries, or illnesses, and the hazard is a potential calibration error rather than a direct physical injury risk.
