In medicine, the term "DICOM standard" (Digital Imaging and Communications in Medicine) is increasingly becoming a criterion when purchasing projectors.
This is a standard for handling, storing, printing and transmitting information in medical imaging.
There are various projectors that meet these requirements, such as the Sanyo PDG-DET100L.
Further information from Sanyo on this topic and this projector:
• Digital Imaging and Communications in Medicine (DICOM) is the standard
for handling, storing, printing and transmitting data in medical imaging.
The copyright for the standard is held by the National Electrical Manufacturers Association (NEMA).
• DICOM files can be exchanged between two parties,
provided both can receive image and patient data in DICOM format.
• DICOM is widespread in hospitals and is increasingly being adopted by smaller facilities too – such as dental and medical practices.
• DICOM connects scanners, servers, workstations, printers and network equipment from different manufacturers into a common picture archiving and communication system (PACS).
