Philips Ingenuity TF PET/MR Systems Recalled for Potential Database Lockup
Philips is recalling 11 Ingenuity TF PET/MR systems because the PET Reconstruction Server database may lock up between scans, though no field issues have been reported.
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 source explicitly states that no actual database lockup issues have been reported in the field, and the hazard is theoretical. Per the rubric, when no illnesses or injuries are reported and the hazard is theoretical, the score is at most 3; given the lack of reported harm and the specific FDA Class II classification for a software/database issue, a score of 2 (Moderate) is appropriate for a voluntary precautionary recall.
