PACS Monitor QA in Practice: How to Verify DICOM Part 14 with TG18/TG270
2025-09-26
To verify DICOM Part 14 in practice, warm up the display, set room lux to operating levels, run TG18-QC for a quick visual gate, then measure GSDF with a photometer to confirm curve fit and Lmin/Lmax. Check uniformity (e.g., TG18-UNL), document results against TG270 thresholds, and lock profiles to prevent drift; repeat on a fixed constancy schedule.
