What happened

Shanghai United Imaging Healthcare Co., Ltd. has recalled the uEXPLORER PET/CT Diagnostic Imaging System due to three potential issues: intermittent problems that may cause image data problems and artifacts, potential interruptions during scout scanning due to angle signal drift from external interference, and a metal edge overlap of a mylar strip in the gantry that may create a sharp edge. One unit with Serial No. F00002 was distributed to Texas as part of the nationwide U.S. distribution.
