Reason for recall
The detector may signal that it is ready for acquisition when it actually is not, resulting in failure to properly acquire the X-ray image.
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.
