Philips Ingenia Elition X MRI system recalled for stiffness value errors in elastography maps

Philips Ingenia Elition X MRI systems with certain software versions (R11.1 and R12.1) may display incorrect stiffness values when MR elastography maps are exported to a PACS viewer. This could lead to misinterpretation of tissue stiffness measurements used in clinical diagnosis.
