GoKawiilWhen Apple announced the Studio Display XDR last month, it detailed a new Medical Imaging Calibrator feature for macOS to allow radiologists to view diagnostic images directly on the display.
That feature has now received FDA clearance. As such, Apple says that Medical Imaging Calibrator will be available this week to Studio Display XDR users in the United States.
New Studio Display XDR feature launching this week
From Apple’s original Studio Display XDR press release:
Today, Apple introduces new DICOM medical imaging presets and the Medical Imaging Calibrator to enable use in diagnostic radiology, allowing radiologists to view diagnostic images directly on Studio Display XDR. Many medical professionals already use Mac for their office or home setups, and Studio Display XDR offers a versatile alternative to single-purpose medical imaging displays, with seamless display mode switching. The Medical Imaging Calibrator on macOS is pending FDA clearance and is expected to be available soon in the U.S. For decades, healthcare professionals and developers have taken advantage of Apple’s innovative products and frameworks to help achieve better patient outcomes, broaden research opportunities, and improve efficiency across healthcare systems. Apple continues to innovate and collaborate with the healthcare community on solutions to ultimately improve care for their patients.
Apple’s full technology overview PDF for the Studio Display XDR has more details on its medical imaging capabilities. The company says the feature is “intended for trained medical professionals for use in general radiology, excluding mammography.”
Studio Display XDR users can switch between medical imaging and general use via the System Settings app on macOS, making it a versatile option for radiologists.
Apple says the new Medical Imaging Calibrator feature for Studio Display XDR will roll out later this week in the United States.
