  "text": "Description of the goods\nClassification(CN code)\nReasons\n(1)\n(2)\n(3)\nA colour monitor of the liquid crystal display (LCD) type with a diagonal measurement of the screen of approximately 54 cm (21 inches) with dimensions (without stand) of approximately 37 × 47 × 7 cm with:\na resolution of 1 200 × 1 600 pixels,\nan aspect ratio of 3:4,\na pixel pitch of 0,270 mm,\na horizontal scanning frequency of 31 to 76 kHz,\na vertical scanning frequency of 49 to 61 Hz,\na maximum brightness of 250 cd/m2 which can be calibrated,\na total viewing angle, horizontal and vertical, of 170°,\na contrast ratio of 550:1,\na response time of 30 ms,\npower and control buttons, including calibration mode selection.\nIt is equipped with the following interfaces:\na DVI-I,\na D-Sub mini,\n1 upstream USB and 2 downstream USB.\nIt has a pivot function of 90°.\nIt has a stand with a tilt and swivel mechanism and a glare-free surface. It can also be mounted on a wall.\nThe product conforms to ‘Digital Imaging and Communications in Medicine’ (DICOM) standards, including Part 14, allowing the user to set extremely precise gamma, brightness and colour temperature values and enabling the monitor to display colour and greyscale gradations of images with the accuracy required for medical diagnostics.\nThe monitor is presented for use in medical systems for displaying radiographic images for clinical diagnostics.\n8528 59 31\nClassification is determined by general rules 1 and 6 for the interpretation of the Combined Nomenclature and by the wording of CN codes 8528, 8528 59 and 8528 59 31.\nGiven its objective characteristics, such as the conformity to DICOM standards allowing the user to set extremely precise gamma, brightness and colour temperature values and enabling the monitor to display colour and greyscale gradations of images with the accuracy required for medical diagnostics, the intended use of the monitor is that of a medical display used in medical systems for displaying radiographic images for clinical diagnostics. The monitor is not considered to be of a kind solely or principally used in an automatic data-processing (ADP) system of heading 8471. Classification under subheading 8528 51 00 is therefore excluded.\nAs the monitor is capable of displaying signals from an ADP machine at a level sufficient for practical use with the ADP machine, it is considered to be capable of displaying signals from automatic data-processing machines with an acceptable level of functionality.\nThe monitor is therefore to be classified under CN code 8528 59 31 as flat panel displays able to display signals from automatic data-processing machines with an acceptable level of functionality with a screen of the liquid crystal display (LCD) technology.",
