The DIN standard describes the performance of acceptance and constancy tests to determine the quality of image display devices.

　　DIN describes the parameters and tools to be used for acceptance testing. Both the manufacturer and user/expert should perform such an acceptance test upon installation or after modifications that could influence image quality and they should determine the reference values for the constancy tests making use of the described test equipment. Compliance to this standard is mandatory for German medical facilities.

　　To assist administrators in their efforts to make display systems comply with the DIN 6868-57 standard, Barco has developed a plug-in to be incorporated into its MediCal QA software. In this way, these additional tasks can be performed user-friendly and almost intervention-free, thereby drastically reducing system administrator's workload and the total life cycle cost of softcopy display systems.
