# Major Recall Alert: MIM (Software Package) Recalled Due to Incorrect Standardized Uptake Value (SUV) Errors in Medical Imaging

Medical professionals and healthcare providers, take note: a critical recall has been issued for the **MIM (Software Package)**. This software error has the potential to impact medical imaging assessments, resulting in **elevated and incorrect maximum standardized uptake values (SUVs)** when two images with differing fields of view (FOV) are fused. The recall, which began on **February 21, 2025**, could have a significant impact on disease assessment, progression tracking, or treatment response evaluations, with the potential for inappropriate therapies based on the incorrect data.

For anyone utilizing the MIM (Software Package), it is vital to address this issue promptly to ensure patient safety and maintain the integrity of medical diagnostics.

## Why This Recall Is Important

The **MIM (Software Package)** is widely used in the medical field to analyze and fuse images, such as PET-CT or PET-MRI scans, which are critical for disease diagnosis and monitoring. The **incorrect image fusion with elevated SUVs** can:

- **Misrepresent medical conditions** – An overestimated SUV may falsely signal disease progression or severity.
- **Lead to misguided treatment decisions** – This could result in unnecessary or inappropriate therapies for patients.
- **Impact patient outcomes** – Accurate imaging is vital for proper disease management.

This issue poses a serious risk to patients relying on diagnostic imaging for their treatment plans. Medical professionals must take action to mitigate these risks immediately.
