Hi Marcel,
The average human eyes are barely able to see the difference between
images with 128 and 256 levels of gray. Therefore I seriously doubt
there is a gain in going to a 12 bit grayscale monitor anyway.

Hi Gabriel,

I am doing investigations for the development of a radiologic tool. In radiology it is quite common to use 10 or 12 bit monitors (Eizo, Barco, etc.) and the radiologists swear that they can see the difference ;-)

My intention is to find out if I can use the common java graphic and imaging components for such a 10-12 bit radiology tool.
