Abstract

In radiological applications two classes of display workstation are usually considered. These are the high-definition (2K) workstation for primary diagnosis and the medium-definition (1K) workstation for uses primarily outside the radiology department. The hardware architecture of each class of workstation is discussed at the level of system integration for the 2K workstation and at the board-level design for the 1K workstation.
