MultiSync MD Series:
Quality assurance made easy
MultiSync MD Series displays are designed for impeccable
image performance over their entire lifetime. Each unit
is factory calibrated to the DICOM GSDF standard, and
most models feature built-in sensors to ensure that this
calibration is maintained.
NEC oers several methods for ensuring that your
MultiSync MD Series display is performing at an optimal
level, including the fully featured GammaCompMD™ QA
software, standalone calibration and a Quick QA feature on
select models.
GammaCompMD QA
Every MultiSync MD Series
display comes with a
copy of NEC’s full-feature
quality assurance software,
GammaCompMD QA
Client. This software is
recommended for calibration
and quality assurance testing
of the displays.
GammaCompMD QA can
calibrate all MD Series displays listed on the next page to
DICOM GSDF and can perform conformance testing to the
AAPM TG-18 standard, providing a report of the displays’
performance. These tests can also be scheduled to execute
at times when the workstation is not in use. The software
keeps a record of past calibrations and conformance tests,
which is useful for Quality Assurance purposes and can
automatically back up data to network locations.
GammaCompMD QA Server enhances the functionality of
the Client software by providing a centralized interface for
management of all Client installations on a network. Display
status is available remotely as well as the ability to perform
remote conformance tests and calibrations for most displays1.

Standalone/Self Calibration
Every MultiSync MD Series display
includes a standalone or self-calibration
feature. This feature uses an external
sensor (NEC MDSVSENSOR2 or X-Rite
i1 Display2) plugged into a USB port
on the display to perform a DICOM
calibration without any software.
This calibration option is useful for situations where a
computer is not available to run the GammaCompMD
QA software. It does not provide any information on the
parameters measured during calibration, so standalone
calibration may not be ideal for ongoing quality assurance.
Quick QA
MultiSync MD211C2 and MD211C3 models include a Quick
screen QA feature, available at the push of a button. This
feature uses the built-in front calibration sensor on the
display and is designed to allow the user to perform a
simple visual test, while providing a measurement of the
luminance and DICOM GSDF error percentage.
This QA test is ideal for times when a simple visual test is
needed and there is a method for documenting the results,
as the results of this test are not stored with the display.
