About display functions
Native, uncorrected panels will display all grayscale/color levels with luminance increments that are not
optimal for crucial diagnostic information. Studies have shown however, that in medical images certain
grayscale/color parts contain more diagnostic information than others. To respond to these conclusions,
display functions have been de
fi
ned. These functions emphasize on these parts containing crucial diag-
nostic information by correcting the native panel behavior.
The available display functions for your MDRC-1219 are:
•
Native
: If you select Native, the native panel behavior will not be corrected.
•
Gamma 1.8
or
2.2
: Select one of these display functions in case the display is to replace a CRT display
with a gamma of 1.8 or 2.2 respectively.
•
DICOM
: DICOM (Digital Imaging and Communications in Medicine) is an international standard that
was developed to improve the quality and communication of digital images in radiology. In short, the
DICOM display function results in more visible grayscales in the images. Barco recommends selecting
the DICOM display function for most medical viewing applications.
The DICOM display function applies ambient light compensation (ALC) taking the ambient light con-
ditions of your reading room into account. The available reading room options are:
-
Darkroom
: Selects DICOM calibrated function, optimized for darkroom conditions (0-50 Lux)
-
Of
fi
ce
: Selects DICOM function optimized for of
fi
ce conditions (51-250 Lux)
-
Operation Room
: Selects DICOM function optimized for operating room conditions (251-500 Lux)
