Philips IQon Spectral CT Recall for Cardiac Image Labeling Error
Philips is recalling 25 IQon Spectral CT systems because cardiac images may be incorrectly labeled as having phase tolerance applied when it was not.
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 hazard involves a labeling error in medical imaging software without reported injuries or illnesses, fitting the criteria for a moderate severity recall.
Plain-English summary
Philips Medical Systems (Cleveland) Inc is recalling 25 IQon Spectral CT Model # 728332 computed tomography x-ray systems. The recall involves systems with serial numbers 860004 through 860043, 860046 through 860127, and 890002. These units were distributed worldwide, including the United States, Canada, and Mexico.
The recall is due to a software issue where, in certain instances during a cardiac step and shoot acquisition with phase tolerance selected, images may be labeled as if phase tolerance had been applied when it had not actually been applied. This mislabeling could affect the interpretation of the cardiac images.
Healthcare facilities and users of these systems should contact Philips Medical Systems for instructions on how to resolve the issue. The recall is classified as Class II by the FDA.
