Tim is right on. Get an image directly from the camera & one from Forum &
compare them.
My off the cuff guess would be that there are image adjustments added to
the displayed image that are not being added to the ?DICOM? exported image.
ie Forum is getting a "raw" image file, and the camera is adding on the fly
enhancement.
With our radiology PACS this is a common occurrence - the raw captured
MRI/CT/PET has a much different appearance that an image adjusted to
highlight certain pathology.

Have you compared an image exported directly from the slit lamp with the
same one exported from Forum? That’s what I would do first. Take a look at
both of them in an independent viewer to see if they appear the same or
not. And as Marshall suggested you could look at the histograms for both
versions, but just comparing them subjectively would let you know if Forum
is altering them.
Good luck,

Hi all,
Anyone with an BQ900 camera system have an issue with photos showing up in
Forum much darker than shot?
Zeiss and Haag Streit blame the other and we've ruled out monitor
calibration.
Any thoughts are appreciated!
