It is further advised that users refrain from using the colormaps and values derived from ADC maps calculated by DynaCAD. ADC maps originating natively from the MRI system should be used as an alternative as these values are unaffected. Philips will provide a v4.0 software update for the affected software versions as a permanent correction.
