Recalled Products

  1. Standard Cranial Reference Array

Reason

There are specific pairs of arrays that might add an inaccuracy of more than 1 mm to the registration result during the exchange due to the combination of their tolerance limits. This effect could potentially cause an inaccurate display of instruments by the navigation system in the region of interest, compared to the actual patient anatomy.
