Diagnostic confi dence in full color
Today’s radiology practice is rapidly
evolving to a multi-modality
environment where color applications
are gaining prominence. With the
NIO COLOR display system, Barco
brings diagnostic confi dence and
dependable performance to the
visualization of these advanced color
applications.
Why choose NIO COLOR?
• Available in 2 MegaPixel and 3
MegaPixel resolutions
• High-grade image quality with
excellent contrast and brightness
• Long-term luminance stability with
BLOS technology
• Accurate grayscale and color
rendering
• Perfect color matching between
displays
• High-performance 3D rendering
with full 3D, OpenGL and DirectX
support
• Easy DICOM conformance
• Integrated front fi lter for easy
maintenance and protection (3MP
only)
Perfect color matching
Perfect color matching guarantees
that the color characteristics in
every dual-head NIO COLOR display
system are fully consistent. This
allows radiologists to perform their
work without the distraction of color
differences inherent in LCD panels.
Protective front cover
An integrated front cover protects the
valuable LCD panel of the NIO COLOR
3MP against damage from intensive
use in clinical environments. The cover
also allows for easy and safe cleaning.
Its non-refl ective coating will improve
the diagnostic experience, while
keeping refl ections very low.
BlueBase and ClearBase viewing
modes
The NIO COLOR display system is
adjustable to BlueBase and ClearBase
viewing modes, allowing radiologists
to work in their preferred color
temperature. Both color mode
options provide fi lmless perfection for
accurate softcopy imaging.
High-performance 3D support
NIO COLOR display systems come with
a high-performance display controller,
specifi cally designed to support 3D
PACS applications with 30-bit color
precision. The PCI Express controllers
feature impressive image download
speeds and optimized 3D operations
through OpenGL and Microsoft DirectX.
As a result, NIO COLOR is ready for the
latest 3D CT, MR and PET applications.
Automated calibration and QA
The NIO COLOR family introduces a new
degree of transparency to the QA
routine. Featuring MEDICAL QAWEB, an
innovative softcopy QA solution, NIO
COLOR guarantees maximum diagnostic
confi dence and uptime of your display
systems by providing automated
DICOM calibration, Quality Assurance,
display asset management, problem
solving and reporting. With MEDICAL
QAWEB, calibration and QA settings
can even be changed remotely
without having to be present at the
workstation.
Consistent image quality for many
years
NIO COLOR displays deliver consistent,
high-quality images for many years. The
integrated Backlight Output Stabilization
(BLOS) technology guarantees fast
power-up and continuously stabilizes
the luminance output of the LCD’s
backlight, which signifi cantly improves
the overall consistency of the displays. In
combination with the innovative MEDICAL
QAWEB solution, BLOS also enables
automated and remote calibration.
