Medical Device Recall

Issue:
Product Safety
Audience:
General Public, Healthcare Professionals, Hospitals
Identification number:
RA-72466

Reason

When an IMRT template is selected for a new patient, DRP points can be placed in a region where the dose is zero. If the rescale dose function is invoked, the Total Dose, MU, DVH, Isodoses and Dose Cursor remain unscaled but agree, but individual beam doses are scaled. If the beam doses are used for a plan evaluation, this dose will not agree with the rest of the plan dose (Total Dose, MU, DVH, Isodoses, etc.) and incorrect clinical decisions could be made.
