504. Color Flow Mapping of Hyperthyroidism

The Utility of Color-Flow Doppler Sonography in the Evaluation of Hyperthyroidism

As with all facets of medicine, the key to uncovering the etiology of an illness lies in performing a careful history and physical examination. Such is also the case when dealing with patients who manifest with hyperthyroidism. Aside from the clinical encounter, physicians have a myriad of diagnostic tools at their disposal. A host of investigations, ranging from a simple blood test to a nuclea...

Quantitative color Doppler flow mapping. Is flow convergence at the end of the rainbow?

A New Method for Color Gamut Mapping by Genetic Algorithm

To reproduce an image, it is necessary to map out of gamut colors of the image to destination gamut. It is clear that the best color gamut mapping introduces the perceptually closest image to the original one. In this study, a new color gamut mapping is purposed by the aid of Genetic Algorithm (GA). The color difference between the original and mapped images based on S-LAB formula was chosen as...

Mapping emotion to color

The sensitive artificial listener (SAL) project is interested in ways to elicit emotions from humans. This can be done in several ways; one of them is by presenting colors. The use of colors to stimulate a certain feeling, may it be calm, aggressive, energetic, happy etc. This paper tries to provide a method for generating colors to elicit a certain feelings based on an emotional state from the...

Data Driven Color Mapping

In this paper we present a simple, yet effective method to map data set values of different distributions to a color map in order to reveal interesting structures. We make use of an ordering and a simple projection technique to transform the data set before color mapping. Our transformation yields convincing results for various distributions. It also removes the burden from the user to test sev...
