The high brightness of 1,200 cd/m2 enables the 5 MP RadiForce GX530 monitor to offer a long usage time guarantee of 40,000 hours. With dual-link input support, monitors achieve a clock frequency of 50 Hz, even when displaying in high resolution. This enables smooth response when adjusting window level or width through the DICOM viewer application, compared to single-link connection. Additional features include the integrated front sensor for self-calibration and the integrated presence sensor for energy savings.

Double Black Imaging will highlight its X-Series LCD line with X-CAL Web. This line includes a 2MP monochrome and high-bright color, a 3MP monochrome and high-bright color, a 5MP monochrome and new 10MP monochrome LCD with FDA 510(k) clearance for mammography. These environmentally friendly and ergonomically designed LCDs exceed industry standards with built-in front sensors. They are bundled with X-CAL Web calibration suite for full automatic calibration, conformance, alerting and reporting.  They feature high-speed graphic controllers and a 5-year warranty.

The Coronis Fusion family of medical imaging displays offers high-quality multi-modality imaging and features 30-inch color LCDs that can be used as one widescreen desktop or a seamless two-head display. Radiologists can organize their workspace in any configuration they desire, simultaneously viewing chest X-rays, multiple 2-D and 3-D computed tomography (CT), magnetic resonance (MR), cath and echocardiogram images — or any other combination of high-quality grayscale, color-enhanced and fused images — side-by-side on a single, seamless screen. The displays can enhance the productivity of radiologists from a workflow perspective.  

Novarad, the first picture archiving and communication system (PACS) company to integrate the ACR-DIR upload-certified DoseMonitor ionizing radiation dose monitoring software, now provides alerts and tracking for patient, procedure and modality history. NovaPACS images and reports are available anytime via any Web browser, PDA or smart phone. Advanced hanging protocols, 3D/MPR, single-click peer review, call and stat reports are standard features. Built on the same database, NovaRIS tracks patient information, procedures, exam status, revenues and insurance payouts.
