Reason for Recall

A problem in the software has the potential to be associated with the dose; when a template is created the user has the possibility to predefine organs. For the Target the user defines the max. dose and the min dose, for the OAR (Organs at Risk) the user only defines the max. dose. The firms engineering team determined that the software defect was repeatable.
