8-bit or 11-bit monochrome displays—which image is preferred by the radiologist?

摘要

Objectives Vendors of medical displays promise a better diagnostic performance using 10- or 11-bit instead of 8-bit monochrome displays. We measured the gain of “Just Noticeable Difference” (JND) steps using high grayscale resolutions and evaluated the preference of radiologists regarding different aspects of image quality.
