5.22 Video encoding modes
About video encoding modes
Video encoding modes specify how the color and luminance information is encoded in the video signal. In
consumer displays, this is usually done by a limited 8-bit encoding mechanism. Your Mammo Tomosyn-
thesis however, features 10-bit encoding enabling it to better match the DICOM de
fi
ned grayscale range.
Such an extensive range is necessary to comply with the guidelines set forward by the latest medical
guidelines.
The available video encoding modes for your display are listed below.
Please note that the display controller connected to your display might not always sup-
port all these video encoding modes.
Standard
This mode uses the standard 8 bit encoding
mechanism.
HDR1
This mode features 10-bit video encoding following
the High Dynamic Range (HDR) standard, usually
used on color displays.
HDR2
HDR2 is a Barco speci
fi
c mode featuring 10-bit
video encoding following the High Dynamic Range
(HDR) standard but allowing full refresh rate (which
is not always possible with HDR1). This mode is
usually used on color displays.
Dual 10 (only with Barco display controller)
Dual 10 is a Barco speci
fi
c 10-bit video encoding
mode which is usually used on grayscale displays
and which allows full refresh rate.
Automatic
When selecting this option, your Mammo
Tomosynthesis will automatically assign the correct
video encoding settings to the connected video
input signals.
To manually select a video encoding mode:
1. Bring up the OSD main menu.
2. Navigate to the
Con

guration > Image Source
menu.
3. Enter the
Video Encoding
submenu.
