Reason for recall

Due to a hardware issue in the cable connectors of the system generator, a thermal overload in the cable connections may occur when performing excessive fluoroscopy/acquisitions, a burning smell may be detectable coming from the generator cabinet and the system may lose the imaging functionality of the corresponding plane and result in a situation where it is necessary to cancel clinical treatment or to continue treatment on an alternative system
