What this record means
The record shows that the mark “MRX” is dead; it was abandoned because the owner, Senior Scientific LLC, did not file a Statement of Use or Extension Request after the Notice of Allowance on September 23, 2014. The mark was on the Principal Register and covered medical imaging apparatus for small animals used in a research laboratory environment (class 009). A similar name would raise the closest concern in the same narrow field of laboratory imaging equipment. The record does not give the owner control over every use of the word “MRX”; it applies only to the specific goods listed. The prosecution history shows a series of extensions granted and eventually abandonment, with the last event being the abandonment notice on October 24, 2016. No oppositions, cancellations, or other enforcement actions appear in the supplied history. For someone considering a similar name, the abandoned status reduces the risk, but the specific goods listed still present a potential concern if the new use is in the same laboratory imaging apparatus niche.
