What happened

Merge Healthcare, Inc. has recalled Merge OrthoPACS versions 7.3, 7.3.1, 8.0, and 8.0.1 due to a software issue affecting how prior thumbnail images and mammography scans display. When mammography stacked scrolling is enabled, prior thumbnails may not appear in reverse chronological order and images may not scroll in reverse chronological order, which could affect how radiologists view and compare medical images. A total of 73 devices were affected and distributed nationwide across 30 U.S. states as well as internationally to Belgium and Canada.

The recall notice does not specify what actions affected consumers or healthcare facilities should take in response to this recall.

Hazard

Potential for prior thumbnails to not display in reverse chronological order and images may not scroll in reverse chronological order when mammography stacked scrolling is enabled.
