RayStation 8.0Recalls & reported problems

Summary

No MAUDE adverse event reports in our data reference this device identifier directly.

10 FDA recall records name this device's identifier, 6 still open.

5 other recalls cover devices cleared under the same FDA submission (K180379); they may or may not involve this specific model.

Reports come from manufacturers, hospitals and patients and are not verified by the FDA. A report does not prove the device caused the event, and counts can't be used to compare devices or estimate failure rates. How this data works · Data updated Oct 13, 2026.

   If the dynamic jaw mode is used and an optimization is continued after changing the dose grid or modifying the target ROI, the positions of the jaws may change unexpectedly for some control points. User must be aware to avoid unnecessary jaw openings during treatment planning

   For some LINAC types, merging clinical beams with beams of approximate dose may lead to the approximate dose erroneously labeled as clinical dose. Merge beams can be used manually, in scripting, or as part of the Automated breast planning feature. In some cases, when merging two beams where the first beam has clinical dose and the second beam has approximate dose, the dose of the resulting beam will be labeled as Clinical, although dose for some of the beam segments is still calculated with the SVD dose engine and it should be labeled Approximate: Mixed dose. The difference between approximate and final Clinical dose is in most cases small, but there can be body sites such as lung where the difference can be significant.

9. May 18, 2020Terminated

   Software error was identified in the Pencil Beam Scanning (PBS) and Line Scanning (LS) dose calculation algorithms that could result in a local underestimation of expected dose.

10. Feb 20, 2020Terminated

    There is a potential for erroneous propagation of the current tabletop positions when applying pitch or roll correction. Even though pitch and roll correction is never propagated, non-zero pitch or roll causes the lateral, longitudinal and vertical values propagated to be incorrect.
