e.cam Gamma Camera, an emission computed tomography system. It is intended 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.

Published November 11, 2015 · Recall initiated: June 26, 2015

Status when published: Terminated — openFDA updates weekly, so this field may not reflect the current status. Always confirm with the official notice.

What's the hazard

Potential failure mode related to the radial brake, where the detector was able to drift, led to a re-design of the brake redundancy circuit. The redesigned Brake Redundancy Circuit will force even a defective brake to engage in the unpowered state by applying a reverse charge to the brake and ensuring the brake has demagnetized.
