PTW-FREIBURG has recalled 42 units of BeamAdjust software and associated OCTAVIUS Detectors due to a software error that generates incorrect calibration files. When using certain file types like TIFF or DICOM as a reference, the software produces flawed calibration data, which leads to inaccurate measurement results during medical radiation testing. The recall affects BeamAdjust Version 2.3.3 and OCTAVIUS Detector models 1000 and 1600. Consumers should contact the manufacturer or their healthcare provider for guidance on correcting the calibration settings.
The software defect causes the medical detector to be calibrated incorrectly, leading to inaccurate measurement results. This can result in incorrect radiation dosage calculations or verification during patient treatment planning.
