The monitor is intended as an affordable tool for viewing diagnostic images on the Picture Archiving and Communication System (PACS).

The 3-megapixel monitor has a 21.3-inch diagonal color Liquid Crystal Display (LCD) display, Light Emitting Diode (LED) backlighting, and a front-facing sensor for calibration of display brightness. The monitor is shipped already-calibrated to the DICOM grayscale luminance function. A power-saving feature, which also extends the lifetime of the monitor, reduces display brightness as soon as the operator leaves the station. The monitor features advanced connectivity such as a two-port USB hub, and a DisplayPort.

The MultiSync MD210C3 LCD monitor is manufactured by NEC Display Solutions of America (Itasca, IL, USA) and received 510(K) market clearance from the United States Food and Drug Administration (FDA).

Art Marshall, Product Manager at NEC Display Solutions, commented, “The MD210C3 display is the latest in a line of NEC MultiSync Medical Series diagnostic displays to receive FDA 510(K) market clearance for radiology.”
