Background:

The display (monitor) is an integral part of the digital pathology (DP) workflow, with DP vendors required to include a specific display as part of FDA validation studies. Following radiology's footsteps, DP vendors are choosing medical grade (MG) displays advertising greater quality as compared to commercial grade (CG) displays, but at a much higher cost. MG displays are reputed to achieve greater luminance (light emitted per square area) and allow more precise control of luminance relative to CG monitors. Here, we present a pilot study comparing the luminance characteristics of two FDA-cleared DP displays (Dell MR2416 and Philips PP27QHD) to a high-end
