Softcopy diagnostic with 15MsP super-high resolution displays
Softcopy diagnostic with 15MsP super-high resolution displays
Kanazawa University Hospital implemented a softcopy diagnostic environment in 2005, significantly reducing workload. In 2008, they installed 15MsP super-high resolution workstations for mammography, enhancing image quality and diagnostic capabilities.
The 15MsP displays, developed by TOTOKU, offer three times the resolution of conventional 5MP displays. They utilize ISD technology for independent sub-pixel control and AR coating for improved noise, focus, and contrast, achieving film-like black hues.
Dr. Kawashima and Mr. Yamamoto highlighted the importance of collaboration with manufacturers for successful deployment. The 15MsP system integrated seamlessly with existing PACS, despite initial concerns about compatibility. The DICOM standard facilitated this integration.
The 15MsP displays significantly improved image quality, aiding in the detection of micro-calcifications without the need for extensive panning and zooming. This improvement enhances workflow efficiency and reduces diagnostic stress.
While the transition to digital imaging has been successful, continuous improvement and standardization across manufacturers are necessary. The hospital emphasizes the need for ongoing technological advancements to further enhance diagnostic capabilities.
The introduction of 15MsP displays at Kanazawa University Hospital has exceeded expectations, providing high-quality imaging and improving diagnostic processes. The hospital remains committed to advancing medical technology and fostering collaboration among manufacturers.

Case study Mr. Yamamoto I agree Dr. Kawashima. In addition to the overall efficiency that digitalization brought us, the image quality is now nearly comparable to film. Thank you very much. We, as a manufacturer, are very glad to hear that. Considering the increase in image data, what is your opinion about the display speed of the 15MsP display? Dr. Kawashima Display speed has significantly improved. For example, it took much longer for the old workstations to display two different images on one screen at the same time. However, because of hardware and software improvement the display speed is...
