BOUT READING ROOMS
Reading rooms can only be selected when the DICOM display
function is selected. Therefore, please refer to "Display
functions" on page 42 to correctly set the display function.
The American Association of Physicists in Medicine (AAPM) composed a
list of pre-defined reading rooms. Each of these reading rooms are
defined by following parameters:
the maximum light allowed in this type of room
•
the preset ambient light correction value for this reading room
•
These parameters are stored in your display and determine the preset
ambient light correction value to take into account to recalculate the
DICOM display function when Ambient Light Compensation (ALC) is
enabled. Please refer to "Ambient Light Compensation (ALC)" on
page 43 to enable ALC.
