Reason for recall
When deleting a previously entered custom isotope, the software deletes the isotope, but not the associated dial setting. Possible other stored custom isotopes may then have incorrect dial settings and may lead to an incorrect dose measurement and/or misadministration
Lead and other heavy metals accumulate in the body. Children are most at risk; even low levels can affect development.
