Why the product was recalled

Certain iLab Polaris Systems which were upgraded with a previous 2.10 software version (disk batch 629774) contained a bug in which only the True Color Secondary Capture (SC) format will archive Diastolic Hyperemia-Free Ratio data as intended. If either Multi-Frame UltraSound (US) or SC Image Storage formats are used, the DFR data will not be archived and the user will not be notified of this unexpected behavior.
