source quote (p.5)

“The SpineUs™ System is a diagnostic ultrasound system, which consists of the FDA cleared Clarius Ultrasound Scanner C3 HD3 (K213436), a consumer PC, a tracking system with OptiTrack cameras connected to a POE switch and active LED markers, and the SpineUs™ computer application. The SpineUs™ computer application, installed in the consumer PC, processes the ultrasound imaging data received from the Clarius Ultrasound Scanner and the tracking data received from the tracking system. The SpineUs™ computer application allows the operator to view ultrasound images of the spine, segment the ultrasound images using artificial intelligence, generate and visualize 3D reconstructions of the surface of the spine in real-time, measure spine-related anatomical components (e.g., intervertebral angles and spine curvature), review and manage patient measurement data, and generate and export printable reports.”

recall_reason_pattern
Software/algorithm-related recall in product code IYO (Civco Medical Instruments Co. Inc., initiated 2026-03-02): "There was an error in inspection and programming of the eTRAX needle sensor for Aurora trackers. The result is a potential for the needle tip position to be incorrectly identified " Recalling firm is another firm in the same product code.

Recall and MAUDE counts are product-code-level (reports aren't reliably attributable to one device). Signals are descriptive observables with sources — never a judgment that the device is unsafe or drifting. Snapshot 2026-07-08.
