There is a complaint regarding internal check cable guide mechanism failure for the Nucletron Flexitron brachytherapy afterloader system. Due to an obstruction during the check cable out drive, the internal guiding tube became displaced and the check cable became damaged. This issue could cause treatment interruption or in a very unlikely scenario, incorrect source positioning and radiation treatment errors.
