Why it was recalled

According to the FDA_DEVICE notice, the identified hazard is: Under certain conditions, photon beams in High Energy Clinacs may experience a gradual change in beam symmetry, potentially reaching an asymmetry of up to about 7% before interlock occurs. At maximum asymmetry, this may result in no more than about 3.5% dose deviation from expected at any point in the beam, and may result in minor injury to the patient or slightly decreased local disease control.

This Class II recall concerns device products distributed in United States and was recorded by FDA_DEVICE. Recalls in this category are published so that owners, retailers, and importers can identify affected units and act quickly.
