excellent viewing angle, makes it an ideal solution for a
multitude of medical applications and environments.
I-Guard
I-GUARD®is Barco’s patent-pending, built-in calibration
device, continuously maintaining image quality. With I-

radiology activities, as they can be performed while
applications are running.
I-GUARD®allows radiologists or QA administrators to
calibrate their viewing stations or adjust the panel’s
curve to DICOM standards without administrator
intervention.
Ambient Light Compensation (ALC)
When enabled, the ALC system automatically adapts the
display light output, depending on the ambient light in
