Most of the machine specific processing is closed source and proprietary and individuals working with the source are generally required to sign non-disclosure and non-compete agreements. The images that get saved by the scanner is a different situation. Have you looked at mrTools: http://justingardner.net/doku.php/mrTools/overview

Yes, it is in MATLAB or in something else.
I don't think I have seen the software on Philips MRI machines, but as best I recall neither the GE nor Siemens MRI machines use MATLAB.
Please recall that MRI machines require hard real-time data collection, and MATLAB itself is not designed for real-time work.
If you are looking for some MATLAB software that does some kinds of MRI image processing, then look at SPM, http://www.fil.ion.ucl.ac.uk/spm/ which is designed for brain imaging. I have also seen some MATLAB based software for spinal cord imaging, but I believe my organization wrote that in-house.
