    Reason

    Under new testing protocols for MR Environment safety and compatibility, metal devices are no longer designated MR Safe. Some components in the CMF Mandible External Fixator Systems were labeled and/or etched with information indicating they are MR Safe. They can no longer be labeled MR Safe.
