# FDA recall Z-2898-2020

> **Siemens Medical Solutions USA, Inc.** · Class II · device recall initiated 2016-03-31.

## Product

E.cam or Symbia systems that use foresight detectors - Product Usage: To detect or image the distribution of radionuclides in the body or organ, using the following techniques: planar imaging, whole body imaging, tomographic imaging for isotopes with energies up to 588keV.

## Reason for recall

E. CAM and Symbia system with foresight detectors performing gated or dynamic acquisition may lose some detector time information. Our risk analysis indicates that the probability of occurrence is remote.       SPECT: To detect or image the distribution of radionuclides in the body or organ, using the following techniques: planar imaging, whole body imaging, tomographic imaging for isotopes with energies up to 588keV.    CT: The CT component is intended to produce cross sectional images of the body by computer reconstruction of x-ray transmission data from either the same axial place taken at different angles or spiral planes taken at different angles.    SPECT+CT: Perform CT scans and nuclear imaging studies within the same instrument. To obtain attenuation corrected images and to provide registration of anatomical and physiological images within the patient's anatomy.
