LG Electronics is significantly strengthening its B2B medical monitor lineup.

LG Electronics announced on the 12th that its newly launched diagnostic monitor (model name 40HT513D) has received medical device approval from the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA).

The new product is a 40‑inch monitor with a 21:9 aspect ratio and is equipped with a curved IPS Black panel. With a resolution of 5120×2160 and a total of 11 megapixels (MP, Mega Pixel), it enables on a single screen tasks that previously required three separate 3‑megapixel‑class monitors.

In particular, it features “3PBP (3 Picture By Picture),” which splits one screen into three sections to display different video sources simultaneously. This allows users to view multiple visual materials—such as X-ray, CT, and MRI images for diagnostic imaging—on one screen at the same time without switching screens.

By displaying multiple images on a single screen, the product eliminates reading obstacles such as bezel lines that occur when multiple monitors are combined. It also fundamentally reduces unnecessary eye movement that used to occur when switching between screens.

The new model is equipped with a built-in “KVM switch” that allows users to control two PCs with a single keyboard, monitor, and mouse. Simply moving the mouse cursor to the screen border switches between PCs, and files can be easily transferred using a drag-and-drop method.

In addition, a detachable calibration sensor is applied for precise management of the monitor’s brightness and contrast. During normal use, the sensor tip is stored inside the sensor body so it does not obstruct the view of the screen; it is only exposed when calibration or performance measurement is required for accurate reading of medical images.

The monitor also incorporates enhanced software (SW) features. It supports a “Focus View” mode, which allows users to highlight an area of interest and dim the rest of the screen using only the mouse and keyboard without zooming in, and a pathology-optimized “Pathology” mode, which adjusts screen resolution and color tone to make pathological details such as cells and microscopic structures appear clearer.

Diagnostic imaging monitors installed in hospitals can be remotely managed in an integrated manner through LG Electronics’ proprietary software, “LG Calibration Studio Medical.”

Lee Choong-hwan, Executive Vice President and Head of the Display Business Unit at LG Electronics, said, “LG Electronics will continue to strengthen its lineup of FDA-approved diagnostic monitors and provide differentiated customer experiences in the B2B medical monitor segment based on its outstanding display technologies.”

Meanwhile, medical monitors are one of the areas LG Electronics is fostering to expand its B2B business. Since entering the medical imaging device business in 2016, LG Electronics has been building a portfolio tailored to different uses, including diagnostic, surgical, and clinical monitors.
