Why it was recalled

Siemens became aware of a potential safety issue when using the "In-session resumption" feature of the syngo RT Therapist (RTT) 4.3 software. The RTT will send again the previously completed beam or segment for delivery to the control console, thus repeating the already delivered Monitor Units of the same beam or segment.

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