Siemens radiation therapy software may lose treatment structure data
Siemens syngo.CT software used in radiation therapy systems may lose treatment structure data during edit and reopen operations, sending incomplete treatment information to planning systems.
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: This is an FDA Class II recall affecting medical device software used in radiation therapy planning. No illnesses or injuries have been reported. The potential for data loss in critical treatment planning information represents a risk of harm to patients, fitting the rubric criterion for High severity: risk-of-harm products where injury has not yet been reported.
Plain-English summary
Siemens Medical Solutions USA is recalling syngo.CT VA20A, VA30A, and VA40A software used in multiple SOMATOM radiation therapy systems. These software versions may lose critical treatment structure data when using the contouring or patient marking workflow to edit a structure set after saving and reopening a study.
The issue could result in an incomplete structure set being sent to the treatment planning system (TPS), which manages patient radiation therapy planning. This data loss may compromise the accuracy of treatment information used in radiation therapy planning.
44 systems distributed nationwide are affected. Healthcare facilities using these Siemens products should verify that their treatment planning workflows are not affected by this issue. Siemens has issued a Class II recall; facilities should contact Siemens Medical Solutions USA, Inc. for updated software and guidance on mitigation steps.
