LG Debuts 5MP High-Definition Mammography Monitor
Intended for mammography and digital breast tomosynthesis (DBT) interpretation, the device reportedly emphasizes high-definition image quality and ease of use for radiologists.
Offering enhanced visualization of mammography and other breast imaging, LG has launched the 21HQ613D-B diagnostic monitor, which allow for high-definition views on a 21.3-inch, 5-megapixel (MP) platform.
Emphasizing the image quality of the 21HQ613D-B device, LG noted the monitor, which received FDA clearance in February 2024, gives radiologists 2,048 x 2,560 resolution, 1,100 cd/m2 luminance and an 1800:1 contrast ratio.

While the 21HQ613D-B diagnostic monitor is intended for the assessment of digital mammography and digital breast tomosynthesis (DBT), LG noted that radiologists can also utilize the monitor for review of breast magnetic resonance imaging (MRI), computed tomography (CT) or ultrasound images.
The 21HQ613D-B diagnostic monitor also has a Focus View Mode, which allows radiologists to highlight a key part of an image, and a Multi-Resolution Mode, which facilitates resolution adjustments to optimize viewing of different images, according to LG.
"LG's new 5MP diagnostic monitor is tailored for reviewing mammograms and breast tomosynthesis, providing a high-quality medical imaging display with both simple management and practical features for users,” said Stephen K. Hu, the head of medical displays for LG Business Solutions USA. “We’re dedicated to providing cutting-edge solutions for the medical sector with our display technologies, and the addition of the latest 5MP monitor underscores this commitment to innovation.”
Mammography Study Suggests DBT-Based AI May Help Reduce Disparities with Breast Cancer Screening
December 13th 2024New research suggests that AI-powered assessment of digital breast tomosynthesis (DBT) for short-term breast cancer risk may help address racial disparities with detection and shortcomings of traditional mammography in women with dense breasts.
