A display is a computer monitor that shows the processed data from the scanned area. Displays can be black-and-white or color, small or large depending upon the model and price of the machine.

The display matrix is the matrix in the displayed image and can be equal to or larger than the reconstruction matrix size due to interpolation procedures. This array of rows and columns of pixels is typically between 512 x 512 and 1024 x 1024.

(DFOV / RFOV) The display field of view is a selectable scan factor measured from the center of the patient to the most distant located edge of the patient.

The brightness is the balance of light and dark shades in a displayed image. High brightness (also called density or intensity) settings produce bright images and low settings produce dark images. The contrast determines how many gray levels are displayed and the density determines the intensity.

The cine mode is a series of rapidly recorded multiple images taken at sequential cycles of time and displayed on a monitor in a dynamic movie display format.
