Hitachi discovered a software error with a feature called Multi-Planar Reconstruction (MPR). MPR takes an original volume dataset reconstructed in any plane view and creates a new image set from another view (i.e. axial to coronal, coronal to sagittal, etc.). The error causes the first image in the dataset to have a right/left reversed orientation. The software error can occur randomly when execu
