What FDA cleared it for
The Indications for Use statement, verbatim, from the decision document.
MRCAT brain is indicated for radiotherapy treatment planning for primary and metastatic brain tumor patients. Fundamental Scientific Technology: MRCAT brain functionality is implemented as a software plug-in for the MR main software and it contains the following main features: 1) Automatic post-processing tool delivering MRCAT images 2) Examcard with mDixon imaging protocol 3) DICOM export of MRCAT image. MRCAT Image Generation MRCAT images are generated with an ExamCard post-processing step, which uses the images from the previous mDixon scan. The post-processing logic takes care of launching MRCAT algorithm executable calculating a new 3D MRCAT image. The post-processing is started once the acquired mDixon MR images have been reconstructed. The first step of MRCAT generation is to pre-process the images to ensure that the MRCAT source images have consistent intensities. The intensity normalized images are then used as input in a convolutional neural network (CNN). The CNN is trained using matched pairs of CT and MRCAT source images. The training of the CNN is locked and is not adapted during use. The output of the CNN is post-processed to create images in CT values. The generated MRCAT images are checked for correctness to ensure validity of the generated MRCAT for radiation treatment. The sanity checks ensure that the imaging field of view has been positioned correctly and that the MRCAT body outline matches that of the MR. The HU values for the Philips Medical Systems […]

Adverse-event reports in MAUDE, by product code
As of , MAUDE held 807 reports filed against devices carrying product code MUJ. That code is shared by every device of this type, not this device alone, and MAUDE reports are submitted by manufacturers, facilities and the public without FDA verification. The latest reports, in the reporter’s words:
24 September 2026 · Malfunction · MONACO · Elekta Solutions AB · report 3015232217-2026-00031
The customer reported that the SRS Cone plan export for the counter clockwise beam is not being transferred correctly to MOSAIQ.
22 September 2026 · Malfunction · RayStation · RaySearch Laboratories AB (Publ) · report 3007774465-2026-00003
A user was preparing radiotherapy treatment of the right breast for a patient who had previously received RT to the left breast. The user performed a deformable registration of the two CT scans (prior treatment and current) and mapped the dose onto the current planning CT to create a cumulative dose distribution. The user noticed that the dose in the left breast (from the prior treatment) appeared cut off as it was limited by the size of the dose grid used for the prior treatment. The patient […]

15 July 2026 · Malfunction · PLANONE 1 · COSYLAB, JSC, CONTROL SYSTEM LABORATORY · report 3014425747-2026-00001
DURING TREATMENT PLAN PREPARATION FOR A PATIENT, IT WAS DISCOVERED THAT COUCH SHIFTS (TREATMENT COUCH TRANSLATIONS REQUIRED TO MOVE THE PATIENT FROM THE REFERENCE/SCANNED POSITION TO THE TREATMENT POSITION) DISPLAYED IN PLANONE DIFFERED FROM THOSE DISPLAYED IN ARIA/ECLIPSE WHEN A PLAN CREATED IN PLANONE WAS TRANSFERRED TO ARIA FOR SCHEDULING. NO PATIENT HARM OCCURRED, AS THE INCONSISTENCY WAS IDENTIFIED DURING THE PLAN PREPARATION PHASE BEFORE TREATMENT DELIVERY. INVESTIGATION IDENTIFIED THE […]
2 June 2026 · Malfunction · MONACO · ELEKTA SOLUTIONS AB · report 3015232217-2026-00016
THE CUSTOMER REPORTED THAT THE NUMBERING OF THE FIRST MRI IN MONACO ALWAYS STARTS WITH MR2, AND ONLY THE SECOND MRI THEN BEARS THE NUMBER MR1.
