- Product
- Philips Ingenia 1.5T with MR Elastography (MRE). 1. Model Number (REF): 781315. 2. Model Number (REF): 781341. 3. Model Number (REF): 781396. 4. Model Number (REF): 782115. 510(k) Numbers: K163116, K173079, K183063, K193215, K213583, K223458, K251397, K251808
- Reason
- 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.
