Asia Pacific, October 3, 2011 – Sony launches the industry’s first organic light-emitting diode (OLED) medical monitor meeting the needs of the healthcare industry in critical monitoring during clinical endoscopic and surgical applications. Opening up a new chapter in medical monitoring history, the much anticipated unveiling of the PVM-2551MD 25-inch OLED medical monitor will take place, for the first time in Singapore at the Asia Pacific Digestive Week (1st – 4th October 2011).

OLED is a next generation flat-panel screen technology with far superior image quality and outperforms liquid-crystal display (LCD). As a pioneer in OLED technologies across industries, Sony now introduces the PVM-2551MD OLED medical monitor featuring Full HD OLED panel using Sony’s unique “Super Top Emission” structure and also comes equipped with an advanced processor that brings out the full performance of the OLED. The combination of these elements results in the display’s high-resolution, high contrast deep black colour, excellent response to motion, faithful colour reproduction and uniformity – all these impossible to achieve with the LCD monitors currently used in the medical industry.
