Standard monitors for general office use have grayscale tone characteristics which may vary even between the same models. In the medical field, monitors must display medical images accurately and consistently. Digital Imaging and Communications in Medicine (DICOM) Part 14 specifies a display function for grayscale which is now used as a standard to adjust the grayscale tone characteristics of monitors used in the medical field.
With the bundled RadiCS LE quality control software installed, a built-in backlight sensor periodically checks for brightness irregularities of RadiForce MX-Series monitors. Furthermore, simplified calibration compliant with the DICOM Part 14 standard can be periodically performed to correct the brightness and grayscale tones of the monitor. Superior cost performance will be achieved when installing a large number of monitors compliant to DICOM Part 14 in clinical review application usage environments.
