What it is, is that the mecial monitor can handle a HIGHER resolution than a normal monitor. The higher resolution will give the picture a more realistic, 3d look. But when you buy a monitor for your computer you have to buy the monitor it can handle. If you computer can handle only 1024x750 maximum resolution, then you decide to buy a monitor that can handle up to 1600x1024 resolution, thinking that the higher price monitor is better than the lower resolution one. Well if your monitor can not display the higher resolution than it is a waste of money. Your computer has to be able to send out the signal for the higher resolution or your monitor can not display it.
The medical computers have really good video cards than the normal computer has. There are other advantages too

Pixel density is your answer. Plus the deflection yoke if it is a CRT. Same for TV. Computer monitors have a higher scan rate, and smaller pixel size, with more of them. If you went back to the old days of using a TV for your monitor, you have to set your computer to 40 characters per line. While a pricey computer monitor could have 80 characters per line.
I built some of the first color monitors. The convergence board was as big as the screen! Then using a stator wound yoke with 33 poles instead of 4, that convergence board really came down in size. This also reduced the "barrel and pin" on the screen.

A medical grade monitor also is one that can function safely in the presence of a high level of oxygen.
