Reason for recall
Software: If the user excludes voxels from the Gamma calculation that are below a dose threshold (Suppress gamma calculation), the Gamma Passing Rate (GPR) calculated for individual ROIs is not correct. The GPR calculated by VERIQA overestimates the correct GPR. The evaluation can therefore show false positive results.
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.
