Affected Products 

Ultrasound Integration Software for Cranial/ENT Navigation 3.1.x

Reason

The intraoperative Brainlab Ultrasound Navigation Software does not support the modification of the probe's image width, an optional feature of the BK Medical Ultrasound System, resulting in an incorrect display of the depth of the ultrasound overlay by the navigation for non-linear ultrasound probes, with the deviation depending on the probe and the difference between the calibrated and used image width.
