9-2 Adjusting Image Appearance
For best results when viewing printed images, follow these
guidelines:
•
Codonics film media is designed to be viewed using a light box
suitable for viewing medical diagnostic images.
•
Codonics paper/white film media is designed to be viewed
under cool-white, fluorescent light. Spectral differences and
intensity variations in the viewing light sources can change the
apparent color of images printed on paper/white film.
If you plan to use MCM settings, then you should use both GCS and
MCM bracketing sheets to determine the combination of settings
that result in the desired image appearance.
A general strategy for using both the GCS and MCM bracketing
sheets is:
1. If an MCM setting has not been recommended, print an MCM
bracketing sheet, using a representative image, and select the
MCM setting that provides the best color match to your monitor.
2. After determining the MCM setting, print a gamma/contrast
bracketing sheet to fine-tune the overall brightness and contrast
of the image. For most applications, the gamma setting will be
from 0.90 to 1.25, and the contrast setting will be from 0 to 20.
