The recall is due to an issue with the software that could make the viewer vulnerable to security threats and data manipulation. 

“If we are not careful, we run the risk of spending more time admiring these novelty-driven tools than advancing the real frontiers of radiology.” 

An academic medical center struggling to meet CT report turnaround time benchmarks was recently able to improve its overnight efficiency by implementing a framework designed to streamline teleradiology requests.
