1. Overview
1.1. Introduction
Flat panel displays are quickly becoming the standard in modalities
such as interventional radiology, endoscopy, laparoscopy and
ultrasound applications.
Barco’s 18" MIVD 1218 grayscale flat panel display module offers
flexibility and digital scan conversion for use in modalities.
The panel, featuring an RS232 interface, has a resolution of 1280 x
1024 and complies with worldwide medical approvals.
The accurate signal conversion and wide range of interfacing options
of the MIVD’s dedicated circuitry guarantee image fidelity.
The MIVD 1218 further offers LUT correction, which allows setting
the panel’s transfer curve to viewing standards like DICOM or CRT.
Options
Portrait Accelerator (PA)
The Portrait Accelerator automatically adapts the orientation of the
image to the physical orientation of the display panel. The system
makes it possible to display a portrait resolution image on a portrait-
oriented display without additional software.
Tilt & swivel foot
The tilt & swivel foot allows ideal positioning of the panel, in height
and viewing angle.
Most of the photos in this manual show the model with the tilt &
swivel foot option.
Memory scan modes
The memory of the display contains maximum 200 fixed and 28
programmable scan modes.
When you connect a video signal, the display checks in the memory
for a matching scan mode.
If it finds one, it selects the corresponding settings and parameters
from the memory. If it does not find a matching scan mode, the
display uses default settings to display the image.
When you make adjustments and save the changes, the current scan
mode is saved as programmable scan mode. If this happens while all
programmable scan modes are occupied, the oldest programmable
scan mode is overwritten automatically.
