Diagnostic monitors for mammography
Diagnostic monitors for maximum diagnostic certainty in digital mammography
All monitors for mammography
The switch from analogue to digital mammography in combination with breast ultrasound and, to some degree, MRI, has vastly improved the quality of breast cancer diagnostics.
Diagnostics systems must meet high quality standards in order to fully exploit the potential of the procedures and assist in the early detection of tumours. This applies even more so to their use in breast cancer screening programmes, for which the image reproduction device needs to deliver a fast response time for mammography data sets with high performance, meeting special requirements.
Mammography diagnostics
The right monitor for every situation
In addition to the conventional monochrome display on two monitors, EIZO addresses other user requirements: widescreen monitors for displaying before and after images in parallel without any distracting bezels between images and a multi-modality option for displaying mammography, ultrasound, and MRI images.
The reliable detection of breast cancer requires a precise, even, high-resolution monitor image. EIZO’s image reproduction devices ensure maximum diagnostic accuracy in digital mammography by delivering a clear reproduction of the smallest details, a reliable differentiation of the finest nuances and optimal brightness at all times.
The advantages of RadiForce monitors for mammography
- Precise, even monitor image
- High contrast ratio
- Deep black levels to help distinguish between similar dark grey levels
- 10-bit display supports razor sharp reproduction and reliable differentiation between even the slightest tissue inconsistencies
- Calibration according to DICOM® standard, including availability of DICOM® presets and ongoing quality testing, for long-term precision

Software solutions for ensuring image quality
Optimal quality control of image reproduction systems in radiological applications
Monitor quality management, including calibration as well as acceptance and consistency testing, in one program. The software is simple, easy to use and can even perform consistency test measurements fully automatically. The RadiCS quality control tool is capable of end-to-end monitor quality management, starting with calibration and acceptance/consistency testing through to network-supported quality assurance management in conjunction with RadiNET Pro. Moreover, RadiCS is simple to understand, easy to use and suitable for RadiForce and non-RadiForce monitors. RadiCS also allows you to control EIZO’s Work-and-Flow functions to deliver user-friendly workflows. This includes, for example, the Point-and-Focus functionality, which serves to quickly select and zoom in on relevant image areas using the mouse or keyboard.

Calibration and management software for RadiForce monitors
The RadiCS LE software is used for the calibration of EIZO RadiForce monitors and to manage the calibration data. RadiCS LE also helps to determine and maintain screen data such as inventory numbers and monitor usage time. A backlight saver functionality is integrated into RadiCS LE. This allows the user to save both energy and monitor usage time while the monitor is not in use. Additionally, RadiCS LE comes with the Mouse Warp functionality. It prevents the mouse pointer from getting stuck at screen edges in multi-monitor systems when the screens are working with different resolutions. RadiCS LE is included in the scope of delivery of EIZO RadiForce monitors.

Quality management for all in-hospital monitors
The RadiNET Pro software from EIZO enables the centralised and hence efficient quality management of all hospital monitors connected within the network. The browser-based application provides easy access to the information the user needs. The administrator can conduct or schedule quality control operations from anywhere in the hospital easily and promptly. Inventory information, for example, the model name and usage time of monitors, can be managed in RadiNET Pro. In addition, information such as the connected computers and graphics boards, the medical facility and the installation location can also be recorded. Along with that, detailed information on each monitor can be consolidated into a report on request.
