Philips North America LLC is recalling 330 units of its Philips Inclusive CT whole-body x-ray systems due to three critical software issues. These defects can cause incorrect image displays, errors in reporting patient images, and potential exposure to incorrect functions during clinical procedures. If you have been scanned using one of these affected systems, you should contact your healthcare provider to ensure your results were interpreted correctly. Philips is working to address these software errors to ensure the safety and accuracy of patient diagnostics.
The software defects can lead to the display of incorrect patient images or data, which may result in a misdiagnosis, delayed treatment, or the administration of unnecessary medical procedures. In some cases, patients may also be exposed to incorrect imaging functions or radiation settings during their scan.
Manufacturer initiated corrective action via notification letter.
