High-quality imaging
NIO display systems offer high-brightness, image crispness and an excellent viewing
angle. This makes Nio the ideal solution for a multitude of medical applications and
environments. The energy-efficient Nio display systems come in a new, attractive
design in single-head or matched dual-head configurations. All Nio systems have a
solid and handy tilt and swivel base and can be used in portrait or landscape viewing
mode.
Nio 5MP in BlueBase or ClearBase viewing mode
Nio 5MP display systems are available in BlueBase and ClearBase viewing modes,
allowing radiologists to select the color temperature best suited for their application.
Both viewing modes are approved for use with digital mammography.
Perfect color matching
Barco carefully color matches the displays in every multi-head Nio display system to
guarantee that the color characteristics of all displays in the system are consistent. This
allows radiologists to perform their work without the distraction of color differences
inherent in LCD panels.
Protective front cover
Nio display systems are equipped with a protective front cover, which protects your
valuable LCD against damage from intensive use in clinical rooms. The cover also
allows for easy and safe cleaning. Its non-reflective coating will improve the diagnostic
experience, while keeping reflections very low.
Long-term image confidence
Thanks to its high luminance and Barco’s Backlight Output Stabilization (BLOS)
technology, Nio is the ideal solution for a wide range of medical imaging applications.
BLOS guarantees fast power-up and continuously stabilizes the luminance output of
the LCD’s backlight. This significantly improves the overall optical efficiency of all Nio
display systems and provides long-term image stability.
FDA cleared display technology
Fully committed to quality and diagnostic confidence, Barco offers a Nio display system
family that is fully FDA 510(k) cleared for use in medical imaging applications.
