PARAMUS, NJ – Jan. 21, 2025 — Sony Electronics Inc. today announced the latest addition to its comprehensive medical monitor line-up, the LMD-32M1MD 32-inch[1] 4K HDR Mini-LED Surgical Monitor, designed to deliver an unparalleled viewing experience in medical environments. With its advanced features and superior picture quality, the LMD-32M1MD sets a new standard for clarity and precision. The LMD-32M1MD is now available for purchase.
“We are proud to announce the new LMD-32M1MD, a game-changing surgical display that’s packed with Sony’s latest unique cutting-edge technology enabling a new standard of stunning brightness, deep contrast, and exceptional clarity for surgeons and clinical staff. Better visualization contributes to improving OR workflow and has the potential to lead to better patient outcomes. Combining this advanced technology with numerous integration advantages and fan-less design makes this monitor specifically tailored to the unique demands of hospitals and surgery centers,” said Julie Holodak, Head of Sony’s Healthcare Solutions in the U.S. “Our new monitor not only meets the high-performance needs of the healthcare industry but also reflects our commitment to reducing environmental impact and contributing to a more sustainable world.”
High Picture Quality with Advanced Local Dimming Technology
The LMD-32M1MD features Sony's Advanced Local Dimming Technology (Backlight Master Drive) for unrivalled precision. This technology precisely controls the panel backlight's dense array of mini-LEDs, ensuring stunning brightness and high contrast. By independently controlling the LED backlighting sources in light and dark zones of the image, the LMD-32M1MD achieves significantly improved black reproduction and a contrast ratio of 1,000,000:1. With a peak brightness exceeding 1,850 cd/m², the monitor delivers exceptional visual detail and clarity.
The LMD-32M1MD is the first surgical monitor worldwide to achieve VESA Display HDR1000 certification (as of January 2025).
Minimized Screen Reflection for Optimal Viewing
In brightly lit operating rooms, the LMD-32M1MD minimizes screen reflection to provide surgeons with a clearer view. Sony's unique Anti-Reflection Technology combines two reflection suppression technologies: Low Reflection and Anti-Glare surface treatment. This combination reduces the amount of reflected light and diffuses incoming light, resulting in extremely high contrast images with lifelike color reproduction.
