Philips Ingenia Elition S MRI stiffness value error correction
Philips Ingenia Elition S MRI systems with MR Elastography may display incorrect voxel size settings in the default scan protocol when certain image reconstruction parameters are used, potentially leading to stiffness value errors.
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: The source identifies this as an FDA Class II recall. No reported illnesses or injuries are stated. The hazard is a software or parameter-setting error affecting image reconstruction accuracy, not a structural or safety-critical hardware defect.
Plain-English summary
Philips North America is recalling the Philips Ingenia Elition S with MR Elastography (MRE) medical imaging systems due to a potential for stiffness value errors. The issue occurs when a specific range of image reconstruction parameters is used in combination with Resoundant's algorithm, causing the reconstruction voxel size settings in the default MRE scan protocol to display incorrectly as too small.
The affected devices include three model numbers: REF 781357 (1 unit), REF 782106 (3 units), and REF 782137 (2 units). A total of 6 units have been distributed worldwide, including throughout the United States and to numerous countries.
Patients and healthcare providers should contact Philips North America regarding this issue for guidance on affected devices and potential remediation steps.
