What happened

Shanghai United Imaging Healthcare Co., Ltd. is recalling three uMI 550 Positron Emission Tomography and Computed Tomography systems distributed nationwide in the United States, including Texas. The affected systems use software version R001.3.0.0.750505 and have serial numbers 200017, 200023, and 200024. The issue involves a malfunction where the CT Hounsfield unit curve may not display in real time when using the bolus tracking protocol with the tracker scan function.

When this malfunction occurs, clinical scanning protocols must be started manually instead of automatically, which may affect image enhancement and could require patients to undergo repeat scans. The recall record does not specify a remedy for affected consumers.
