LG Electronics USA has launched a 31.5in 4K mini-LED surgical monitor at RSNA 2025, the radiology industry’s annual conference, in Chicago. The model 32HS710S is designed to combine imaging performance with features that aim to simplify surgical workflows and enhance reliability in operating room environments. The monitor delivers 4K UHD (3,840×2,160) resolution on a high-brightness In-Plane Switching (IPS) panel, a type of LCD technology.
The display covers approximately 95 per cent of the DCI-P3 (Digital Cinema Initiatives, Protocol 3) colour space and is compliant with the DICOM standard (Digital Imaging and Communications in Medicine) for medical images and related information. LG says it reproduces images with clarity, accuracy and uniformity across a wide viewing angle.
The monitor incorporates optical bonding technology beneath its protective glass surface, which is designed to minimise internal reflections and improve contrast. Anti-glare, anti-reflection and anti-fingerprint coatings are intended to maintain visual clarity under bright surgical lighting.
LG says IP45 (front) and IP32 (rear) ingress protection, along with IK06 impact resistance, ensure operation in demanding environments. Weighing 20.3 pounds, the display is compatible with a range of surgical monitor arms for installation.
Users can assign preset picture-mode settings independently to each input source, optimising display parameters for different imaging devices. Dedicated hotkeys enable activation of preferred viewing modes and picture-by-picture (PBP) configurations.
Jim Salamon, senior healthcare IT manager at LG Electronics USA, said: “For medical facilities facing increasing pressure on staff, time and equipment utilisation, this new monitor serves as an intelligent display platform – not just a high-resolution monitor. The display has been designed in close alignment with the needs of surgical teams who demand precision, flexibility, consistent performance, and reliability in every procedure.”
The display supports four-screen PBP and picture-in-picture (PIP) modes for monitoring multiple video sources simultaneously and offers mirror and rotation modes for image orientation. A clone screen output allows real-time duplication to auxiliary displays.
LG’s built-in failover input switch is designed to automatically transition to a backup source if the primary feed is lost. Connectivity options include HDMI, DisplayPort, 3G-SDI and DVI-D inputs, plus HDMI and 3G-SDI outputs for clone viewing. USB 3.0 upstream and downstream ports support accessories and calibration.
The 32HS710S joins LG’s family of surgical-grade displays, which includes the 27HS714S, a 27in 4K mini-LED surgical monitor.
Salamon added: “At the same time, LG remains committed to expanding its medical and surgical display portfolio to meet every imaging requirement across healthcare – from diagnostic and clinical review to complex advanced surgical displays such as large-format 55in 4K monitors designed for wall-mounted or integrated OR environments. By combining precision imaging, intuitive operation and long-term reliability, LG aims to support healthcare professionals in delivering the highest standards of patient care.”
