Zap Surgical Systems recalled 17 ZAP-X Radiosurgery Systems on July 25, 2025. A software defect may cause the collimator to collide with patients during operation. Healthcare providers should stop using the device immediately.
If the radiosurgery system triggers a proximity error message during a long gantry move (greater-than180 degrees), and a subsequent proximity error message occurs after the automatic reduction of speed, a software defect could potentially lead the collimator to collide with patient shoulders or the patient table.
