EIZO today announced a new 49-inch wall mount monitor for operating rooms (OR). The CuratOR LX490W is a Full HD (1920 x 1080), widescreen monitor ideally suited for viewing medical images such as X-ray, CR, MRI, or endoscopy in the OR. The Eizo LX490W has a high brightness LED backlight that can be set to luminance levels up to 700 cd/m2. The backlight is maintained at its calibrated luminance using the integrated stability system to ensure the image remains consistent with medical imaging standards over time. With a contrast ratio of 1300:1 and 178° wide viewing angles, healthcare professionals can rely on the screen’s clarity from any perspective.
With its five factory-calibrated gamma modes, the LX490W can be quickly tailored to meet different requirements for brightness and the display of different image types such as DICOM-based X-rays or endoscopic sources with a gamma of 2.2. In addition to the predefined 12-bit look-up tables (LUT), the LX490W offers a user-definable LUT for easy, onsite adaptation to specialized viewing needs. The monitor can also be configured to view multiple source images simultaneously using picture-in-picture (PiP), picture-and-picture (PaP) or picture-over-picture (PoP) functionality. The LX490W will be shipping at the end of 2016.
