Compliance of the monitors with the Ministry of Health Regulation of 2017

Clinical review monitors are used in the medical offices of hospitals and clinics to evaluate patient examinations. The requirements for the aforementioned monitors are significantly lower than those for descriptive monitors. Also, the construction of dual-monitor workstations is not required. The requirement to work in DICOM mode, which ensures the quality of digital images in radiology, remains unchanged. The medical monitors offered have all the necessary safety certificates required for clinical imaging.

In our offer you will find, color review monitors with matrices from 1 MP to 5 MP. The only exception is monochrome review monitors for mammography examinations.

Review monitor requirements:

• for mammography are analogous to those for descriptive monitors (only 1 medical review monitor is required, instead of the two required for descriptive stations),
• for the rest of the study, the specifications are less stringent in terms of brightness and contrast requirements as for descriptive monitors. However, the requirement for DICOM-compliant display is still a priority.

Despite the legislature's lowering of the performance requirements for review monitors relative to descriptive monitors, manufacturers remain aware of their critical position in the treatment process and offer solutions based on the latest technological components. Functions of brightness stabilization, screen backlight uniformity, and DICOM-compliant calibration systems analogous to descriptive monitors.

Mammography diagnostics requires the most precise reproduction of details in terms of both screen resolution and image quality. Therefore, 5 MP/6 MP monitors are used here. In practice, the same monitors are used at the review stations as at the descriptive stations.

Still, many physicians prefer to work on monochrome monitors, where the diagnosis is based on images just in black and white. The huge advantage of monochrome monitors, from the point of view of performing diagnostics, is that the image they display is "clean" and accurately reproduced. The grays are natural, without discoloration or borders. The image gives a sense of greater depth.

To meet these expectations, Jusha will continue to produce 5 MP monochrome monitors (as well as 2 and 3 MP), for years to come, while BARCO will continue to produce 5 MP monochrome monitors.

Despite the not-too-exorbitant image performance requirements of monitors for general radiology, medical equipment manufacturers are offering much more advanced solutions that allow for much more detailed image analysis, faster diagnosis and better comfort. This is also in line with the trend of using monitors to review examinations from many different modalities at the same time and consult with doctors of different specialties.

Despite the minimalist requirements for the image parameters of review monitors for tomography and angiography, medical equipment manufacturers suggest equipping laboratories with analogous monitors to those for general radiology, keeping in mind the welfare of patients and the comfort of doctors.

Our company also offers fully configured diagnostic stations for all types of tests. The two main variants of the stations work on the basis of:

- Intel® Core™ i5 processors optional i7,
- XEON E-2224G processor.

The standard operating memory is 16 GB. Storage is two SSD drives operating in RAID 1 (mirroring) configuration, ensuring full data security. If the station will temporarily store diagnostic images, the station is additionally equipped with a 2TB or larger HDD. Each station is equipped with a dedicated medical graphics card. At the customer's request, the system has calibration and monitor control software installed.
The whole system runs under the control of Windows 10 Pro operating system. The stations are equipped with a backup power system, UPS.
