5.22 Video encoding modes
About video encoding modes
Video encoding modes specify how the color and luminance information is encoded in the video signal. In
consumer displays, this is usually done by a limited 8-bit encoding mechanism. Your Mammo Tomosyn-
thesis however, features 10-bit encoding enabling it to better match the DICOM defined grayscale range.
Such an extensive range is necessary to comply with the guidelines set forward by the latest medical
guidelines.
The available video encoding modes for your display are listed below.
Please note that the display controller connected to your display might not always sup-
port all these video encoding modes.
Standard
HDR1
HDR2
Dual 10 (only with Barco display controller)
Automatic
To manually select a video encoding mode:
1. Bring up the OSD main menu.
2. Navigate to the Configuration > Image Source menu.
3. Enter the Video Encoding submenu.
4. Select one of the available video encoding modes and confirm.
5.23 Grayscale conversion modes
About grayscale conversion modes
Grayscale conversion modes specify how color generated on the display controller is converted to
grayscale in your display.
The available grayscale conversion modes are:
34
This mode uses the standard 8 bit encoding
mechanism.
This mode features 10-bit video encoding following
the High Dynamic Range (HDR) standard, usually
used on color displays.
HDR2 is a Barco specific mode featuring 10-bit
video encoding following the High Dynamic Range
(HDR) standard but allowing full refresh rate (which
is not always possible with HDR1). This mode is
usually used on color displays.
Dual 10 is a Barco specific 10-bit video encoding
mode which is usually used on grayscale displays
and which allows full refresh rate.
When selecting this option, your Mammo
Tomosynthesis will automatically assign the correct
video encoding settings to the connected video
input signals.
