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.
