State-of-the-art modalities for tube, panorama and DVT images deliver sharp images. The image reproduction quality of X-rays in the dental radiological field largely depends on the selection of the right monitor.

DIN 6868-157 is the first standard to define minimum requirements for the use of radiological image reproduction systems in dental diagnostics. The DIN requires a specific minimum brightness based on the room class (RC). Room class 5 is especially critical for reading rooms in dental diagnostics. The EIZO RadiForce MX232W-DT is the optimal monitor in this respect.
The monitor offers excellent image quality with a high resolution of 2 megapixel (colour), a high contrast ratio of 1000:1 and stable brightness up to 300 cd/m2. Even the smallest details are differentiated in the display, regardless of the angle at which the monitor is viewed.
Colour rendering is controlled by a 12 bit look-up table (LUT), up to 10 bits of which are available in the DisplayPort connection. This produces a resolution with a maximum of 1 billion colour tones. The rendering characteristic and fine structures required for diagnostics can therefore be precisely identified.
An aspect ratio of 16:9 horizontally allows you to see much more than on conventional monitors, for example, when viewing two images side by side.
The monitor shines thanks to its high colour purity and uniform illumination. This is down to the Digital Uniformity Equalizer (DUE), which corrects imbalances automatically, pixel by pixel. Grey and colour tones of radiological and other medical images are correctly rendered over the entire display. This is vital for diagnostics.
Brightness and DICOM® characteristic curve can be checked using the RadiCS LE software and automatically calibrated according to the factory default settings. The integrated sensor in the device takes care of this. The calibration of other tone value curves, such as CIE, is also possible with RadiCS LE.
The monitor has an automatic shut down option for the backlight (backlight saver). This extends the duration of use. Similar to a screen saver, the LEDs turn off when the screen is not being used.
The backlight saver is part of the RadiCS software.
The base allows the monitor to be tilted and turned, as well as operated in landscape or portrait form. The seamless height adjustment starts from the very bottom on the desk. This guarantees optimal ergonomics, regardless of whether you are standing or sitting in front of the screen. Despite its maximum movement possibilities, the FlexStand base always remains completely stable.
It doesn't get easier than this: You can connect most of your devices, such as PC, laptop or cameras directly to the monitor because the monitor hasa number of different ports. That makes your daily work easier.
EIZO measures and adjusts each tone of grey carefully so that the monitors comply with the DICOM® standard when delivered from the factory. The result is a particularly consistent gradation of grey tones, allowing for optimal radiological clinical reviews.
A sensor for the backlight permanently determines the luminance of the monitor. The benefit: The defined and calibrated values are rendered exactly just seconds after the monitor is turned on and remain constant during the entire period of use. The sensor is invisibly integrated in the monitor.
DisplayPort and DVI-I input enable the connection of two image signals. You can therefore connect two computers simultaneously. You can switch between them automatically or manually, if desired.
The monitor has a modern LED backlight. This has several advantages over a conventional CCFL tube: the brightness remains uniformly high, electricity consumption is low, and the service life is significantly longer. The LED backlight is also free from mercury, making it environmentally friendly when disposed of.
The EIZO MED-XN51LP graphics card supports the properties, functions, and settings of the RadiForce MX232W-DT optimally. It enables precise diagnostics and can control several monitors simultaneously. EIZO offers technical support and a warranty service for all graphics cards. Therefore, we recommend using EIZO graphics cards.
EIZO grants a five-year warranty. This is possible thanks to the highly developed production process based on a simple principle of success: sophisticated and innovative monitor technology, made from high-end materials.
Go to the warranty overviewEIZO has developed the RadiCS software specifically for quality assurance for image display devices in the RadiForce range. It offers extensive tests and automatic alignment to guarantee constant and consistent image reproduction on all RadiForce LCD monitors, but also supports screens from other manufacturers. The software automatically executes test images and helps to perform measurements and assessments in accordance with the guidelines in a cost-effective and time-effective manner. For example, measurement results are automatically transferred to the documentation and archived and can be centrally managed using the optional RadiNET Pro software. A calendar with a reminder function ensures timely checks are performed. A suitable measurement device is required to measure the luminance, including veiling luminance. Measured values from various luminance meters are automatically read by RadiCS.
Depending on the body region / methods, different EIZO RadiForce screens are suitable for image display systems in accordance with DIN 6868-157. The EIZO RadiCS quality assurance software is divided into classes I to VIII. The following table shows a classification of suitable screens in this regard.
Note: An acceptance test is necessary for each image display system for an evaluation in accordance with DIN 6868-157.
