Philips Ingenia 1.5T MRI System Stiffness Value Calculation Error Recall
Philips Ingenia 1.5T MRI systems with MR Elastography may display incorrect stiffness values and voxel size settings due to image reconstruction parameter combinations. The error affects 54 units distributed worldwide.
What this means for you
Minor labeling or packaging issue, or a voluntary precautionary recall. Risk of harm is low but real — follow the manufacturer's instructions.
Our severity reasoning: This is an FDA Class II recall involving a calculation/display error in a diagnostic imaging parameter. No reported illnesses, injuries, or hospitalizations are mentioned in the source text, and the hazard is a potential for inaccurate measurement rather than direct patient harm. This falls under minor functional/informational defects typical of Moderate severity.
Plain-English summary
Philips North America is recalling certain Philips Ingenia 1.5T magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) systems equipped with MR Elastography (MRE). The recalled devices include four model numbers (REF 781315, 781341, 781396, and 782115) across multiple 510(k) authorizations. A total of 54 units are affected.
The recall addresses a potential for stiffness value errors that can occur when specific ranges of image reconstruction parameters are used in combination with Resoundant's algorithm. When this combination occurs, the reconstruction voxel size settings in the default MRE scan protocol may display as too small, potentially leading to inaccurate tissue stiffness measurements during elastography imaging.
The affected devices have been distributed worldwide, including throughout the United States and to countries including Canada, Mexico, the United Kingdom, Germany, France, Italy, Spain, Australia, Japan, South Korea, and many others. Facilities using these systems should contact Philips North America for guidance on corrective action.
