With a resolution of 2,500 x 1,600, a new 4 Megapixel, widescreen, color radiology display is suitable for reading computed tomography (CT) scans, magnetic resonance imaging (MRI), positron emission tomography-computed tomography (PET-CT), nuclear medicine, digital pathology, and ultrasound. The display is also suited for computed radiography (CR) and direct radiography (DR) images, because the display is US Food and Drug Administration (FDA) 510(k)-cleared for review and analysis.
NDS Surgical Imaging (NDSsi; San Jose, CA, USA) is now shipping its new Dome GX4MP radiology display, a 30-inch widescreen model offering multimodality viewing in both color and grayscale. The feature set of the Dome GX4MP provides flexibility and cost-effectiveness to the reading room, according to Daniel Webster, vice president and general manager, radiology business unit at NDSsi. “We have taken the popular 4 megapixel platform and combined it with a widescreen format plus enhanced color and grayscale options. The result is a high-performance, high-versatility display without the higher price tag typically associated with other widescreen models.”
The GX4MP also features Domes unique Digital Imaging and Communications in Medicine (DICOM) out-of-the-box capability, with factory characterization data stored in the panel and monitored by the exclusive RightLight internal photometer, allowing the display to maintain DICOM calibration for the life of the unit. In accordance with the American College of Radiology recommendations, the GX4MP display does not utilize reflective glass with protective coatings, thereby avoiding specular reflections or blurred images.
Backed by a five-year standard warranty, the Dome GX4MP widescreen display is engineered with a fanless cooling system to help eliminate dust, excessive noise, and associated mechanical failure. Weighing only 12.24 kg, the lightweight design allows for easy install and maneuverability.
