Standardization of the Color in Medical Imaging

Abstract

 Although the differences in colors reproduced by various displays may cause erroneous medical diagnoses, it will take still a more time to establish a comprehensive theory to standardize the color in medical imaging. Then the Morphological Internet Survey Research Project Team (1998-1999) proposes a temporary solution, in which a set of typical medical images with their diagnoses authorized in advance is used as a practical calibrator for common display equipment.
