New display controller from Matrox Graphics

Matrox Graphics Inc. unveils a new addition to its Matrox RAD series of medical imaging display controllers.

Powering 9.2 mega pixel (MP) displays and supporting multiple boards, the Matrox RAD9mp offers expanded capabilities to medical workstations. Features include accelerated image manipulation, support from the Matrox Imaging Library (MIL) software development toolkit, landscape or portrait configuration modes, multiple patient image sequences, side-by-side views, or a high-resolution image in color or grayscale at maximum resolution and refresh rate.

Matrox RAD9mp controller is equipped with Matrox's real-time grayscale technology. Matrox says the technology can convert color displays to grayscale with the concurrent execution of legacy eight-bit grayscale applications alongside color Microsoft Windows desktop applications such as Word and Internet Explorer without any desktop artifacts.
