Philips SmartPath to dStream MR Elastography Software Parameter Error

Philips is recalling specific units of SmartPath to dStream for XR and 3.0T with MR Elastography due to potential stiffness value errors when certain image reconstruction parameters are used with Resoundant's algorithm, which may cause voxel size settings in the default MRE scan protocol to display incorrectly.

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 with no reported illnesses or injuries. The hazard is a measurement/display error in scan parameters that could affect image analysis but does not directly pose acute patient harm if recognized and corrected by trained operators. The source text does not indicate any known adverse events or hospitalizations.

Plain-English summary

Philips North America is recalling 14 units of SmartPath to dStream for XR and 3.0T with MR Elastography (Model Numbers 781270 and 782113). The recall addresses a 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.

The affected devices are distributed worldwide, including the United States and numerous countries across Europe, Asia, South America, Africa, and the Middle East. Specific serial numbers and UDI codes have been identified for both model numbers.

Users of affected units should contact Philips North America for further guidance regarding this recall. This is a Class II recall classified by the FDA.
