GE HealthCare has recalled 60 Nuclear Medicine imaging systems, including the SMV DSX New Line, SMV DSI, SMV BodyTrack, and MAXXUS models. These older systems, which are past their guaranteed service period, may have been transported or moved without proper support for their heavy detectors, potentially damaging the mounting parts. This defect could cause a detector to fall, which can result in life-threatening bodily injury. No falls or injuries have been reported to date.
The heavy imaging detector can fall if the mounting mechanism has been stressed or compromised, which could strike a patient or medical staff member and cause life-threatening injury.
