BrightView X, Model #882478 Product Usage: BrightView and BrightView X are gamma cameras designed for single or dual detector nuclear imaging accommodating a broad range of Emission Computed Tomography (ECT) studies. The cameras can be used to perform planar static, dynamic, gated, and total body studies, as well as circular-orbit and noncircular orbit SPECT studies, gated SPECT (circular and noncircular)studies, computer-programmed protocol strings, and reference scans (dual detectors only).

Reason for recall

During collimator exchange, the alignment of the collimator cart and detectors may cause a collimator exchange fail, and a collimator may drop to the floor beside the collimator cart. The collimator may be partially supported by the cart (e.g. leaning against the cart), or it may fall/slide all the way to the floor.
