Sign in to monitor this recall

Summary

C-RAD POSITIONING AB is recalling Catalyst software (version c4D 6.5.1 SP2) used with radiotherapy positioning devices, affecting approximately 44 units worldwide. A software defect can prevent the scanning equipment from applying the correct field rotation during patient positioning. While no injuries or incidents have been reported, using the affected software could lead to incorrect patient alignment during radiotherapy treatments. This recall covers several models in the Catalyst and Catalyst+ product lines.

Risk

The software failure causes incorrect field rotation to be applied during radiotherapy positioning. This defect may result in the radiation beam being misaligned with the patient's anatomy, potentially leading to treatment errors or unintended radiation exposure to healthy tissue.

What You Should Do

  1. This recall affects C-RAD Catalyst radiotherapy positioning systems using C4D software version 6.5.1 SP2, including Catalyst, Catalyst HD, Catalyst PT, Catalyst X4, Catalyst+, Catalyst+ HD, Catalyst+ PT, and Catalyst+ X4 models.
  2. Identify your device by checking the model or reference (REF) number on the equipment label: SP001-0025, SP001-0026, SP001-0027, SP002-0035, SP003-0001, SP003-0002, SP003-0008, or SP003-0009.
  3. Confirm if your system is running software version c4D 6.5.1 SP2; this version is specifically affected by the rotation issue.
  4. Stop using the recalled software immediately. Contact C-RAD POSITIONING AB or your local distributor to arrange for a software update or correction.
  5. Call the FDA at 1-888-463-6332 (1-888-INFO-FDA) if you have additional questions regarding medical device recalls.
