Color displays are increasingly used for medical imaging, replacing the traditional monochrome displays in radiology for
multi-modality applications, 3D representation applications, etc. Color displays are also used increasingly because of
wide spread application of Tele-Medicine, Tele-Dermatology and Digital Pathology. At this time, there is no concerted
effort for calibration procedures for this diverse range of color displays in Telemedicine and in other areas of the medical
field. Using a colorimeter to measure the display luminance and chrominance properties as well as some processing
software we developed a first attempt to a color calibration protocol for the medical imaging field.
