Introduction

About the system

MGP D5 Dicom Theater provides consistent image quality for consulting, reviewing and training applications. The system offers a turnkey solution, bundling high-bright medical grade projector, flat panel display, dedicated display controller and MediCal QA management software. MGP D5 Dicom Theater is available in single- head and dual - head configurations.

MGP D5 Dicom Theater facilitates consulting and reviewing: this ceiling-mount medical projection system combines ClearBase and Projector Native White modes, has a user-friendly remote control and features versatile connectivity to add a multitude of both color and grayscale application sources, including PACS, Xray, ultrasound, endoscopy, etcetera.

The MGP D5 Dicom Theater system includes TheaterWatch software, which enables you to calibrate the projector(s) based on a visual algorithm.

Pro

About the separate components

The BarcoMed 2MP2CP display controller generates the images for the display and the projector. It is a dual-head board with two video outputs, which allows it to send video signals to two different display devices. Both video outputs can be defined to deliver the same video signal or two separate video signals.

Both heads have separate Lookup Tables (LUTs), so that the display curve or Preset can be defined and stabilized separately for both display devices.

The MGP D5 projector has multiple inputs, allowing it to be used for projecting the medical images on a large screen or displaying other images, like text, spreadsheets, presentations, etcetera.

The LCD display is used as review display in the MGP D5 Dicom Theater system. Calibration and stabilization of the display is

MGP D5 Dicom Theater Lite 17

Introduction

done by means of the I-Guard® optical sensor, incorporated in the bezel of the display.

The MediCal Pro software is used for defining the Preset the display devices must be conform to and calibrate them to make them conform to the Preset.

The TheaterWatch software is a systray tool normally operating in background, which enables you to calibrate the projector(s) based on a visual algorithm.

Important installation considerations

1. Make sure all equipment is switched off before installing.

2. In case you use a PCI extension box, please install the box following the guidelines in its Installation or User's guide.
