When Raigmore Hospital in Inverness received funding from the NHS to modernise its pathology meeting room, it sought to replace the substandard projector that required the room lighting to be very low, leading to difficulties when reading patient notes. Another issue was that multiple images could not be projected and therefore different sources of patient related information could not be shown simultaneously.
As several high quality images needed to be displayed simultaneously, two JVC DLA-SX21 projectors were installed. The projection quality is such that they can be operated with full room lighting on for most viewing requirements. The projectors were linked through two PC towers, installed in a custom built console. The PCs allow radiology images from the hospital’s Kodak imaging system to be imported for direct viewing at the Multi Disciplinary Team (MDT) meetings, at which cancer cases are discussed by specialists.
