Munich, 1 July 2009 – NEC Display Solutions is strengthening its MDview series of clinical review displays with two wide-format colour devices. The NEC MDview242-2 and MDview262-2 are equipped with IPS Colour panels with a resolution of 1920 x 1200 pixels (2.3 megapixels) and a pixel defect free central working area for superior image representation. Additionally, the innovative X-Light® Pro feature eliminates variations in brightness and colour over the entire lifespan of the monitor. The devices are factory delivered with a preset DICOM curve (Digital Imaging and Communications in Medicine), the required standard for medical digital imaging. This means the NEC MDview242-2 and 262-2 are ready “out of the box” as referral displays for PACS (Picture Archiving and Communication System) workstations.
Whether used to view 3D images for surgical preparation, computed tomography images, cross-sections in nuclear medicine or ultrasound images, the NEC MDview242-2 and the NEC MDview262-2 guarantee maximum precision and colour accuracy. With IPS TFT panel technology offering a viewing angle of 178 degrees horizontally and vertically, and a contrast ratio of 1000:1 (MDview242-2) or 800:1 (MDview262-2), they also provide excellent image representation, especially in multi-screen systems.
Individual calibration and regular constancy tests are simplicity itself with the aid of the GammaComp MD client software from NEC Display Solutions, supplied with every unit, and an optional photometer. In addition, the patented X-Light® Pro feature provides stable colour and brightness rendering. An internal sensor measures variations in the screen’s brightness to keep the set values constant by means of automatic adjustment. The monitors also feature digital uniformity control (DUC) for homogeneous brightness uniformity. These features ensure that the LCD displays satisfy the uniformity requirements for acceptance and constancy tests throughout their entire service lives.
To allow medical display systems to be set up at workstations in line with modern ergonomic standards, the NEC MDview242-2 and 262-2 are height-adjustable by up to 150 mm. The panel can be rotated by 90°, and can even be tilted. VESA-compliant brackets also allow it to be mounted on a wall or on swivel arms.
These colour displays with calibratable 12-bit LUT arrive from the factory with a preset DICOM curve and can be integrated directly into PACS workstations with the DICOM GSDF Part 14 standard. They satisfy the optical requirements of Category B of the DIN V6868-57 standard and the AAPM TG-18 Guidelines for Secondary Class displays.
The NEC MDview242-2 and MDview262-2 are available with immediate effect through NEC Display Solutions as well as through certified medical trade resellers. NEC Display Solutions Europe offers a three-year warranty which also covers the backlight.
