There is potential for the images to be flipped left to right.
GE Healthcare is recalling certain 1.5T and 3.0T SIGNA Excite HD MRI systems because images may flip left to right. This could cause misdiagnosis if the images are used for medical decisions.
The MRI system may produce images that are mirrored left to right instead of showing the correct orientation. This could lead to misdiagnosis if the images are used for medical decisions without proper correction.
Medical facilities using the recalled MRI systems are most affected. Patients receiving scans on these systems may see incorrect images.
Check the system ID on your MRI machine. Affected units have specific system IDs listed in the recall notice, including numbers like 928223MR3T, 360397MR2, and others.
