Recalled products

  1. SYNGO.PLAZA

Reason

A customer safety advisory notice is being issued to inform customers about a potential issue when using SYNGO.PLAZA. When using the pre-fetch/retrieve functionality from the archive (long term storage (LTS)) for a study where all the series have not yet been archived (e.g. due to late received series or archival time-out), these non-archived series will incorrectly get an archive flag set but will be protected from deletion. Therefore, it is possible that a user can manually remove the deletion protection in the short term storage (STS) from these non-archived series due to the impression that the whole study has been archived based on the archive flag being set. In this situation, there will be a partial data loss for the affected study.
