NEC MultiSync® MD212MC

21.3” high-bright 2MP color LCD display
ideal for color and grayscale medical imaging applications

Designed exclusively for the demanding needs of medical imaging
and PACS, the NEC MultiSync MD212MC, a 21.3” 2-Megapixel (MP)
color display, features the flexibility of a color display with image
performance rivaling grayscale displays. Benefits you’ll realize from
this medically certified display include:

• NEC’s UA-SFT liquid crystal technology offers high brightness
without compromising contrast or viewing angles, making the

image quality outstanding for color or grayscale images

• ColorComp™ digital uniformity correction reduces screen uniform-

mity errors and compensates for differences in color/grayscale and
luminance across the entire screen

• Integrated tri-stimulus (three-color) sensor receives more light
information than standard (brightness only) sensors and, therefore,
is extremely accurate and stable

• Each NEC MultiSync MD212MC monitor comes calibrated out of
the box to the DICOM grayscale display function for luminance

• 12-bit RGB lookup tables (LUTs) for gamma provide for more

finely detailed, high-definition rendering of color images and
crisper display of even the most delicate shadings and color
differences

• GammaComp™ MD software, included with each display, ensures
consistent image quality. The software provides a simple interface
for conformance to the DICOM standard, while providing an easy­ to-use QA environment for medical imaging. Optionally, Gamma-

Comp MD Administrator provides computer networks with central­ ized control and management of multiple display systems.

Before

After

nature, LCD panels contain uniformity errors, which are
visible as slightly brighter or darker areas on the screen.

To combat this inherent trait, each MultiSync MD212MC

display is individually characterized during production
using a fully automated system that measures multiple

points across the screen at different gray levels. These

measurements are used to build a 3-D correction matrix
stored inside the display. This data is used to compen­sate for the uniformity not only as a function of position
on the screen but of gray level as well. In turn, this tech­nology, called ColorComp, reduces the non-uniformity
to virtually unnoticeable levels and applies a digital
correction to each pixel on the screen to compensate for
differences in color and luminance.

Ambient
light

For optimal image viewing in any lighting condi­tion, the MD212MC’s built-in ambient light sensor
can automatically adjust the calibration of the
display to suit the environment.

For non-assisted conformance,

calibration and reporting
functions, a built-in remote
sensor is capable of measuring
monitor brightness, whitepoint
and ambient lighting, while

performing a quality check
for DICOM conformance and

contrast response.
