Companies usually start a recall weeks before the FDA classifies and publishes it; the gap above is that lag.

Reason for recall

Philips received reports from the field that the Flat Panel Detector (FPD) does not always remain securely latched in the stowed position.

Device recalls are issued when a component, software or design fault could cause the device to fail or give wrong readings. Many are corrections applied in the field rather than physical returns.

Product as listed by the FDA

BrightView XCT is a gamma camera for Single Photon Emission Computed Tomography (SPECT), one unit per box. BrightView XCT is a gamma camera for Single Photon Emission Computed Tomography (SPECT) and integrates with an attenuation device consisting of flat panel x-ray imaging components. BrightView XCT produces non-attenuation corrected SPECT images and attenuation corrected SPECT images with x-ray transmission data that may also be used for scatter correction. The nuclear medicine images and the XCT images may be registered and displayed in a fused format (overlaid in the same orientation) to provide anatomical localization of the nuclear medicine data.
