With the introduction of the monitors, Sony also plans to unveil a line of 4K products designed to complement every step in the surgical workflow. The other new products scheduled to release over the next several months include a 4K medical grade recorder, 4K Video over IP converter, and a content management system.
“As the highest resolution available today for surgery, 4K gives physicians and their teams advanced visualisation with virtually no pixilation, especially during up-close viewing,” said Amanda Aldridge, medical solutions product manager at Sony Australia. “4K technology gives a better view of general anatomy and blood vessels, allowing nurses, clinicians and surgeons to see in far more detail compared to HD resolution. This is important for minimally invasive and general surgery procedures, and for more immersive education and training.”

4K delivers four times the resolution of HD resulting in enhanced clarity, higher contrast, and more accurate colour reproduction. The increased number of pixels creates more defined images compared to HD which improves surgical vision, making it ideal for operating rooms in hospitals, surgical centers, clinics, and other medical facilities.
Further, medical teams using 4K displays have the capability to simultaneously see a “quad-split” view of four full HD images from other sources, in addition to images from endoscopic camera systems. Surgeons can also zoom in on a 4K image without experiencing the pixilation normally associated with lower resolution technologies.
