The Display Features the Latest Cutting-Edge Sony Technology Ideal for Surgeons and Clinical Staff
PARAMUS, N.J., Jan. 21, 2025 /PRNewswire/ -- Sony Electronics Inc. today announced the latest addition to its comprehensive medical monitor line-up, the LMD-32M1MD 32-inch14K HDR Mini-LED Surgical Monitor, designed to deliver an unparalleled viewing experience in medical environments. With its advanced features and superior picture quality, the LMD-32M1MD sets a new standard for clarity and precision. The LMD-32M1MD is now available for purchase.
"We are proud to announce the new LMD-32M1MD, a game-changing surgical display that's packed with Sony's latest unique cutting-edge technology enabling a new standard of stunning brightness, deep contrast, and exceptional clarity for surgeons and clinical staff. Better visualization contributes to improving OR workflow and has the potential to lead to better patient outcomes. Combining this advanced technology with numerous integration advantages and fan-less design makes this monitor specifically tailored to the unique demands of hospitals and surgery centers," said Julie Holodak, Head of Sony's Healthcare Solutions in the U.S. "Our new monitor not only meets the high-performance needs of the healthcare industry but also reflects our commitment to reducing environmental impact and contributing to a more sustainable world."
High Picture Quality with Advanced Local Dimming Technology
The LMD-32M1MD features Sony's Advanced Local Dimming Technology (Backlight Master Drive) for unrivalled precision. This technology precisely controls the panel backlight's dense array of mini-LEDs, ensuring stunning brightness and high contrast. By independently controlling the LED backlighting sources in light and dark zones of the image, the LMD-32M1MD achieves significantly improved black reproduction and a contrast ratio of 1,000,000:1. With a peak brightness exceeding 1,850 cd/m², the monitor delivers exceptional visual detail and clarity.
The LMD-32M1MD is the first surgical monitor worldwide to achieve VESA Display HDR1000 certification (as of January 2025).
Minimized Screen Reflection for Optimal Viewing
In brightly lit operating rooms, the LMD-32M1MD minimizes screen reflection to provide surgeons with a clearer view. Sony's unique Anti-Reflection Technology combines two reflection suppression technologies: Low Reflection and Anti-Glare surface treatment. This combination reduces the amount of reflected light and diffuses incoming light, resulting in extremely high contrast images with lifelike color reproduction.
Wide Color Gamut for Realistic Visualization
Equipped with LCD and signal processing technology conforming to ITU-R recommendation BT.2020, the LMD-32M1MD achieves a wide color gamut. This enables superior color reproduction, resulting in more realistic visualization of surgical images.
Fan-less Design Minimizes Airflow Disruption
The LMD-32M1MD is designed with user friendly intuitive controls. Its impressive fan-less design minimizes unwanted airflow disruption in the operating room (OR).
Versatile Connectivity for Diverse Modalities and Equipment
The LMD-32M1MD offers a comprehensive array of input/output connectors, including 12G-SDI, HDMI, and Display Port, ensuring versatile connectivity for diverse modalities and equipment. The USB (Type A) Port allows for simple and easy USB configuration across multiple displays.
Auto Panel Brightness Adjustment
The integrated light sensor automatically adjusts brightness to match the ambient lighting conditions, making the LMD-32M1MD particularly well suited for procedures performed in low-light environments, such as ICG (indocyanine green) navigation surgery.
Designed for Easy Cleaning and Optimal Hygiene
The monitor's slim bezel and rounded corners simplify integration in the OR, while the smooth surface and streamlined back shape make it easy to wipe down for cleanliness. The monitor's resistance to liquid ingress and solid particles, with IP45 (front) and IP32 (rear) dustproof and splashproof ratings further ensure a high standard of disinfection and cleanliness.
Intuitive Navigation and Custom Buttons
The monitor's LED backlighting selectively illuminates active control buttons on the front panel, offering clear guidance to clinical staff even in dark environments. Additionally, frequently used functions can be assigned to three custom buttons on the front panel, allowing for quick access and enhanced workflow efficiency.
Environmentally Conscious Efforts
The packaging for the LMD-32M1MD uses molded pulp packaging materials, eliminating the use of expanded polystyrene foam. The monitor is also supplied in a covered non-woven bag made mainly from plant cellulose, reducing the amount of virgin plastic used for packaging by approximately 86% when compared to the previous model's packaging2.
