Where it was sold

Why it was recalled

GE is updating the Preventative Maintenance procedure and schedule, and added an additional Preventative Maintenance check for loose fasteners on the Nuclear Medicaine systems. This check is being added to prevent a portion of the system falling onto the patient during a scan due to fasteners being loose that secure the camera to the gantry.

This product could cause temporary or reversible health problems — stop using it.
