Sony today announced the global launch of the LMD-2765MD and LMD-2760MD, which are thinner, more compact and brighter than any commonly available 26" surgical monitor currently available on the market.
Producing Full HD quality colour video images from endoscopic and laparoscopic and other compatible medical imaging systems, the LMD-2765MD and LMD-2760MD are the only surgical monitors on the market equipped with OptiContrast™. This innovative technology reduces internal and external reflections to optimize image contrast and provides surgeons and staff with a superior view during operations.
Designed to enhance any Operating Room (OR), the monitors incorporate a modern edge-to-edge glass front design with 27” (69cm) display, narrow bezel, a robust aluminum housing and a removable cable cover at the rear to hide connectors and manage cables neatly. Due to the sleek design of the monitors they can be easily wiped down using commonly available cleaning solutions for infection control.
The monitors can also be conveniently mounted on a boom arm or medical cart. The front of the monitor is splash resistant and has an Ingress Protection rating of IPX5, with all other sides rated to IPX2, which is sufficient for protection and regular cleaning.
The monitors have an intuitive backlit control panel for fingertip operation with an innovative feature to only light up buttons that are selectable, thereby guiding non-experienced users to change parameters quickly and efficiently, saving time and stress in today’s busy OR
environment. The flexible operation is enhanced with a choice of multiple modality display capabilities using PIP/POP picture modes to match clinical display needs. Convenient image flip and mirroring functions also provide greater viewing flexibility. The LMD-2760MD provides digital video input connectivity, while the LMD-2765MD offers both analogue and digital interfaces to enhance compatibility with a wide range of HD and SD imaging sources.
Both monitors incorporate an advanced image processing technology called A.I.M.E.™, which can accentuate both the colour and structure of the video image independently to provide enhanced real-time image analysis capabilities to the Surgeon’s preference.
”The Sony LMD-2765MD and LMD-2760MD surgical monitors set a new standard in OR visualization”, said John Herman, Medical Marketing Manager for Surgery at Sony Europe. “The 27” full HD displays provide surgeons not only with a larger image to view, but due to the modern design with edge-to-edge glass the monitors are slimmer and smaller in dimension than any similar display size surgical monitor currently available on the market*”.
The LMD-2765MD and LMD-2760MD monitors will be available in November 2014. Sony will showcase the two new monitors at MEDICA (Stand 10H57) on November 12-15 in Düsseldorf. For more information, visit www.pro.sony.eu/medical.
