Performing a Custom DICOM Calibration

A custom DICOM calibration uses the actual luminance values of your display to adjust the response curve. After you complete the calibration, the new values are applied in place of the default

DICOM calibration whenever DICOM Calibration is selected on the services menu.

NOTE: This procedure requires installation of the optional LCD or

LCD II photometer as described on

page 8.
