Supplied by Image Productions Services, which built the videowall, the panels were used at an exhibit by Sirtex Medical Ltd., an award-winning Australian-based global health care research company that is pioneering a targeted radiation therapy for liver cancer called SIR-Spheres Y-90 resin microspheres. (The therapy places very small radioactive beads about one third the size of a human hair width into tumours within the liver.)
"Our client had a very precise set of requirements, given the important nature of the exhibit," said Brian McNamara, producer and project manager at Image Production Services. "The MVP Ta8 Curve panels did exactly what we asked of them. They were flawless. There was another display with a larger video wall made with big name panels behind us, but our wall more than held its own in terms of colour balance and overall luminance."
The MVP Ta8 Curve wall had a 1296 x 216 resolution. Hung 20ft over the exhibit's main desk, the panels displayed clean crisp images of complex medical animations, clinical study data and research news items, as well as corporate and affiliate research institution logos. This information was updated daily on the panels throughout the five-day conference.
