Recall Z-2712-2014— Siemens Medical Solutions USA, Inc.
Class II · Terminated
Class II FDA medical device recall by Siemens Medical Solutions USA, Inc., initiated 2014-07-28, terminated 2016-12-23. It names 2 FDA 510(k) clearances: K131634, K082506. Product: The Symbia T Series consists of the T16, T6, T2, and T. The Symbia T integrates state-of-the-art SPECT and high quality spiral CT to provide precise attenuation correction and anatomical mapping. The system can also be used as a complete clinical SPECT system for general purpose, WB and SPECT applications. The Symbia T integrates state-of-the-art SPECT and high quality spiral CT to give the system SPECT functionality, with attenuation correction. The Symbia T2 integrates state-of-the-art SPECT and high quality dual slice spiral CT to give the system full functionality for all SPECT-only, SPECT-CT, or stand-alone CT diagnostic applications in Oncology, Neurology, and Cardiology. The Symbia T6 integrates state-of-the-art SPECT and high quality six slice spiral CT to give the system full functionality for all SPECT-only, SPECT-CT, or stand-alone CT diagnostic applications in Oncology, Neurology, and Cardiology. The Symbia T16 integrates state-of-the-art SPECT and high quality sixteen slice spiral CT to give the system full functionality for all SPECT-only, SPECT-CT, or stand-alone CT diagnostic applications in Oncology, Neurology, and Cardiology. For the Symbia T16/T6/T2, the ultra fast multi-slice spiral CT maximizes confidence in diagnostic stand-alone CT, as well as precise attenuation correction and anatomical mapping. Acquisitions can be performed with either the CT preceding the nuclear acquisition or vice versa. Indications for use: 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.. Reason: Siemens Medical Solutions USA, Inc. is performing a field correction because we recently detected a rubber isolator with unfavorable aging properties. The function of the rubber isolator, which is situated within the rotate motor mounting assembly, may degrade over time and may impact motor support.
