Radiology workstation wallpapers

Radiology reporting rooms should have low ambient light and minimal sources of peripheral glare to improve contrast perception on a diagnostic image. A simple way to improve viewing conditions, and add some natural green scenery, is to set one of these images as your Windows desktop wallpaper. They may look dark, but they are comfortably visible and help reduce glare from displays in a reporting area.
