Synapse CV 6 Imaging Software Calculation Error May Cause Misdiagnosis
FUJIFILM Synapse CV 6 medical imaging software may incorrectly calculate left ventricle mass measurements. If used for diagnosis, this calculation error could lead to patient misdiagnosis and incorrect treatment, potentially causing long-term health consequences.
What this means for you
Real risk of harm even if no illness or injury has been reported yet. Stop using the product and follow the agency's guidance.
Our severity reasoning: FDA Class II recall without reported illnesses, injuries, or deaths. The hazard is theoretical—a risk of misdiagnosis and incorrect treatment if the calculation error is used as a primary diagnostic factor—but no actual harm has been documented. This fits the High severity criterion for risk-of-harm products where injury has not yet been reported.
