LANDAUER received reports indicating that some nanoDots may potentially be outside of the specified range of +/-5.5% accuracy. Investigation of nanoDots indicated the presence of a potential non-conformance in the Optical Stimulated Luminescence (OSL) material that is beamed after exposure and emits fluorescence proportional to radiation exposure.
Landauer disseminated an URGENT - Medical Device Recall notice to its consignees on 07/12/2023 by US mail and email. The notice explained the problem with the devices, potential risk, and requested the following: Discontinue use of the affected products, destroy used products, and return unused products.
