Calibration of the luminance output of liquid crystal displays is necessary to ensure the consistent presentation of medical images.  This session will introduce the participant to the theory and practice of display calibration via the DICOM Grayscale Standard Display Function.  Opportunity for “hands-on” interaction with calibration software will be provided.  Also, the speakers for this session will be available for independent discussion of the theory and practice of calibrating both grayscale and color displays.

 

  The Learning Lab offers a hands-on opportunity to get up close and personal with some of the latest technologies. These small classroom-style learning labs are limited to 24 people at one time, and will be offered several times throughout the annual meeting. You must sign up in advance on the SIIM 2008 registration form. Bring your own laptop and plug in!
