Philips recalls SmartPath to dStream for XR and 3.0T MRI systems with MR Elastography (MRE) due to potential stiffness value errors in specific image reconstruction settings.
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 certain MRI systems that may produce incorrect stiffness measurements during scans. This could lead to inaccurate medical diagnoses if the system is used without proper calibration.
The system may display too small voxel sizes in default MRE scans when specific image reconstruction parameters interact with Resoundant's algorithm. This could cause stiffness measurements to be inaccurate, potentially affecting medical diagnoses.
Medical professionals using Philips SmartPath to dStream for XR and 3.0T MRI systems with MR Elastography (MRE) may be affected. Patients undergoing scans with these systems could be at risk of inaccurate results.
