NEC Display Solutions of America, a provider of commercial LCD display and projector solutions, has unveiled the MultiSync MDC212C2 monitor, a clinical review display with a built-in calibration timer that schedules calibrations of displays during off hours.
The 2-megapixel 21.3-inch color display includes a front sensor to maintain calibrated brightness, elevating the level of trust that medical imaging personnel have in the display’s performance. It also includes a human sensor that turns off the LCD screen when a radiologist leaves a desk, saving power and extending the life of the display.
With its self-calibration capability, the MDC212C2 display does not require a computer, software nor a person to handle calibration. It completes the job itself at a time that is convenient for radiologists, company executives said in a news release.
“The MDC212C2 display makes life easier for radiology and IT departments alike,” said Art Marshall, senior product manager for Professional Desktop and Medical Displays at NEC Display Solutions. “For IT, this is significant because there is no longer a need to leave computers on all night, or worry about calibration being interrupted by routine maintenance tasks. Radiology techs also benefit, though, because they don’t have to take time out of their busy days to perform this function, leaving them with more time to do their reads.”
The desktop display also is built for 24-hour continuous usage, so it can be deployed at a nurse’s station. It features a conventional format 4:3 aspect ratio and 1,600 x 1,200-resolution in an IPS panel that covers 97.9 percent of the sRGB color space.
Other features of the MDC212C2 include:
