Class II — the FDA judged the product may cause temporary or medically reversible harm, with a remote chance of serious harm.
This is the FDA's risk judgment for this recall. It describes the potential of the product as a category — it does not establish that any specific unit harmed anyone. Most recalls are Class II or III.
The INFX-8000F is designed to take advantage of the latest technological innovations to reduce dose and to save time. A revolutionary graphic user interface and a multi-tasking computer enable the system to fully meet the requirement for optimum image quality, safety, ease of use, advanced efficiency and improved workflow. The advanced floormounted system INFX-8000F uses a new flat panel detector to present fluoroscopic and fluorographic images of high quality.
Why it was recalled
VAREX changed the manufacturing of the internal board, and the detectors displayed abnormal images. Internal board of the X-ray flat panel detector may display abnormal images, such as horizontal stripes, which may lead to the inability to complete an ongoing exam, or the patient may need to be examined with another x-ray system.
Is your unit affected?
The recall covers only the specific lots or serial numbers the FDA listed. Enter the lot or serial number from your product's label and we'll check it against that list.
A match means your unit may be covered — stop and call your pharmacist before doing anything. No match suggests it isn't covered, but confirm anyway: code formats vary and lists can be incomplete. Your unit not being listed does not guarantee it is safe, and being listed does not mean you have been harmed.

What this is — and is not
A recall is a recorded FDA enforcement action — the FDA logged that a firm is removing or correcting a product. It does not establish that any specific unit harmed anyone, and causation is not established by a recall. The class above is the FDA's risk judgment for the product category, not a finding about your unit. This page informs and compares; it is not medical advice and never tells you to start or stop a drug or device.
