Why it was recalled

The recalling firm identified ten devices which were distributed and could potentially be non-compliant. These devices potentially underwent a routine manufacturing test with non-compliant parameters, which may result in a small blister in the epoxy over transducers in the treatment zone. It is not known at the time the recall was initiated whether the non-compliant test parameters, or presence of the blisters, adversely affect operation of the device.

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