Flat panel display system
for digital mammography
Coronis®5MP Mammo

Perfection is in the details

Filmless perfection
For today's digital mammography,
anything less than filmless perfection is
unacceptable. Mammography imaging
requires unmatched accuracy and high
contrast images that guarantee the
correct display of each pixel. Images
should be displayed with consistent,
film-like precision and without visible
noise or disturbances from the
electronic pixel structure.
And there is more. Productivity. High
fidelity imaging should not cost more
of your time. You should be able to
scroll through one study after another,
without waiting, without fatigue. Until
recently, only CRT based softcopy
screens could meet these high
standards.
Today, Barco introduces CORONIS® 5MP
MAMMO, a flat panel display system
that meets the highest standards for
digital mammography imaging.
Barco's CORONIS®5MP MAMMO allows
you to detect every single detail.
Because for your patients, details
make the difference.

Pixel perfect viewing
CORONIS®5MP MAMMO allows you to detect the
most subtle masses and microcalcifications,
and assures you that no information is
missing. The Unique Per Pixel Uniformity
(PPU) technology eliminates distracting
screen noise and guarantees accurate image
display.
Enhanced productivity
Loading images in less than a second, the
BARCOMED®5MP2FH is the fastest display
controller for digital mammography.
Ultimate diagnostic confidence
Barco's innovative Defect Pixel Compensation
(DPC) technology detects and identifies
missing pixels, providing the ultimate
diagnostic confidence.
Long-term quality and reliability
Barco's MEDICAL®Pro QA software and the
integrated I-GUARD®front sensor offer
intervention-free DICOM-compliant viewing
and lowest cost of ownership.
Lifelong reading comfort
DURALIGHT®backlight technology offers
exceptionally long lifetime. Compared to
conventional backlights, DURALIGHT®backlights
last 3 to 5 times longer.
Innovative technology with an eye for detail
for digital mammography
Combining proven CORONIS®technology with innovative, state-of-the-art functionality, Barco
improves your clinical diagnoses and increases your productivity. This makes CORONIS®5MP MAMMO
the perfect imaging solution for your digital mammography or PACS reading room.

Perfection

In mammography reading, it is crucial to
recognize the smallest and most subtle
image details. Luminance differences as
small as a few percent, on the edge of what
the human eye can perceive, represent
diagnostic information.
To provide you with the diagnostic confidence
you need, CORONIS®5MP MAMMO is equipped
with the unique Per Pixel Uniformity (PPU)
functionality. This proprietary technology
measures and adjusts the luminance output
at pixel level and eliminates screen noise,
thereby making each individual pixel
DICOM-compliant. Unlike other flat fielding
techniques, PPU technology operates
transparently and in real-time. Thanks to
Barco's PPU functionality, CORONIS®5MP
MAMMO is the first 5MP LCD display to comply
with the center-to-corner luminance
uniformity specified in DIN 6868-57.

Per Pixel Uniformity (PPU)
Current Liquid Crystal Displays contain
some missing pixels. These so-called
defect pixels can be problematic because
you might miss critical information in a
mammography image. With CORONIS®5MP
MAMMO however, you can trust what you
see. To make sure that no information is
missing, Barco's CORONIS®5MP MAMMO flat
panel has Defect Pixel Compensation (DPC)
technology. DPC detects and identifies the
missing pixels in each individual display. In
addition, Barco's user-friendly MEDICAL®Pro
software can generate a report of
this information. Thanks to Barco's
patent pending DPC technology, you can
diagnose with confidence and precision.

To ensure superior image accuracy and
diagnostic confidence, Barco's CORONIS®
display system family includes the
unique I-GUARD®technology. The compact,
front-mounted I-GUARD®sensor continually
guards and adjusts the luminance output of
the actual diagnostic viewing area at the
front of the display. Barco's patent pending
I-GUARD®sensor truly sees what you see,
thereby ensuring consistent image quality
and continuous DICOM accuracy over time
and across displays.
Continuous DICOM compliance
with integrated I-GUARD®
It is Barco's belief that a medical display
system should provide 100% of its 'as-new'
performance during its entire lifetime. That is
why CORONIS®5MP MAMMO includes DURALIGHT®,
a revolutionary backlight technology.
Compared to conventional Cold Cathode
Fluorescent Lamps (CCFL), the average
lifetime of DURALIGHT®backlights is prolonged
by a factor of 3 to 5, without increasing
power consumption. This means that there is
no need to replace the backlight during the
life span of the medical display, which
substantially reduces the system's cost of
ownership. DURALIGHT®comes with a 5 year
warranty.
Lifelong reading comfort
thanks to DURALIGHT®
CORONIS®5MP MAMMO has been designed to
provide ultimate diagnostic confidence for
mammography imaging applications. Barco's
dedicated display system features a 5MP
(2048 x 2560) 21.3" LCD, offering exceptional
image accuracy, a wide viewing angle and
perfect geometry. Compared to traditional
CRT displays and mammography film,
CORONIS®5MP MAMMO offers a much larger
active viewing area.
