Official product description
BrightView SPECT model number 882480 BrightView and BrightView X are gamma cameras designed for single or dual detector nuclear imaging accommodating a broad range of Emission Computed Tomography (ECT) studies. The cameras can be used to perform planar static, dynamic, gated, and total body studies, as well as circular-orbit and noncircular orbit SPECT studies, gated SPECT (circular and noncircular)studies, computer-programmed protocol strings, and reference scans (dual detectors only).
Why the product was recalled
