This recall is due to a necessary modification to the cadstream difference threshold when used in conjunction with ge phased array uniformity enhancement (pure) for dynamic mri imaging & a lack of notification when cadstream detects the pure filter has been used.The pure feature is designed to minimise coil intensity variations through a calibration process & may affect the signal intensity values of images. for dynamic series, cadstream kinetic analysis relies on a consistent image acquisition protocol for each individual series in the dynamic series. if pure is applied to individual phases, it may change signal intensity values for the individual series, thus affecting the kinetics. this may result in a change in the amount of colour in the cadstream angiomap. scanning protocols and/or contrast agents that are inconsistent with background filter multiplier settings may result in a sub-optimal angiomap. this may result in a delay in diagnosis or treatment, or patient misdiagnosis.

Merge has released software fix for this issue. The CADstream software fix will detect when a PURE filter is being used and display a notification to the end user. Emergo is providing users with a set of work around instructions to follow as an interim measure. This acion has been closed-out on 27/02/2017.
