The Advantages of Medical LCD Monitors with LED Backlights
LED stands for “light emitting diode.” In other words, an LED is a semiconductor device that emits light when electric current is passed through it. The next section provides a simple explanation of how LEDs emit light. The light source is known as the backlight, and in the early days LCD monitors employed cold cathode fluorescent lamps (CCFL). Recently, light emitting diodes (LED) have evolved, and they are now being used as LCD monitor backlights. This paper will introduce the main advantages of medical image display monitors that utilize an LED backlight.
