Philips recalls certain Ingenia 1.5T MRI machines with MR Elastography (MRE) due to potential stiffness value errors when specific image reconstruction parameters are used, which could lead to inaccurate scan results.
The potential for stiffness value errors when a specific range of image reconstruction parameters is used in combination with Resoundant's algorithm, leading to the reconstruction voxel size settings in the default MRE scan protocol displaying too small.
Philips is recalling specific models of their 1.5T MRI machines with MR Elastography (MRE) because using certain image reconstruction settings can cause the machine to display too small voxel sizes in scans. This could lead to inaccurate stiffness measurements in medical imaging, but it does not pose a direct safety risk to users.
The machine's image reconstruction parameters, when combined with Resoundant's algorithm, can cause the voxel size settings in the default MRE scan protocol to display too small. This leads to potential stiffness value errors in medical imaging, which could result in inaccurate scan results for patients.
Medical facilities that own or use Philips Ingenia 1.5T MRI machines with MR Elastography (MRE) models 781315, 781341, 781396, or 782115 are likely affected. Patients using these machines for scans may receive inaccurate stiffness measurements.
Check the model number on your Philips Ingenia 1.5T MRI machine with MR Elastography (MRE). Affected models include 781315, 781341, 781396, and 782115. Serial numbers and UDI codes are also listed in the recall notice.
Identify your Philips Ingenia 1.5T MRI machine's model number to see if it is 781315, 781341, 781396, or 782115.
The affected models are Philips Ingenia 1.5T MRI machines with MR Elastography (MRE) with model numbers 781315, 781341, 781396, and 782115.
The recall is due to potential stiffness value errors when specific image reconstruction parameters are used with Resoundant's algorithm, which could lead to inaccurate voxel size settings in the default MRE scan protocol.
The recall notice does not specify any remedy or corrective action for this issue.
