What symptom describes an issue where an image or elements of an image become permanently visible on a monitor, regardless of a change in the display content?
Display burn-in, also known as screen burn, is the result of displaying the same image or scene for an extended period, leading to some pixels aging differently than others and causing a permanent 'ghost' image. This symptom differs from temporary screen artifacts or image retention, which can usually be corrected by changing the display content or turning the screen off for a while.
