overview
-Title:
The 1st Symposium of the 'Color' of Digital Imaging in Medicine
-When:
8th-9th May, 1999
-Where:
The special lecture hall of the school of dentistry,
Tokyo Medical and Dental University, Ochanomizu, Tokyo, Japan
-Official language:
Japanese (English may be used but no simultaneous translation provided)
-Purpose:
In the medical area, intensive use of the multimedia technology is rapidly
progressing, and digital images will soon be common not only in medical
practice, but also in medical education and research activities. Though,
there is no standard of the color reproduction of digital images for various
displays, and two identical images may be diagnosed differently if they are
displayed using different equipments. This problem will arise in almost all
medical fields, especially in the telemedicine and in the electronic medical
records, so a comprehensive solution must be given before the spread of
these equipments without any standardization.
From this point of view, a symposium will be set up to identify the
problems on 'color' of digital images in various medical fields, and to
establish some consensus on the solution of these problems among concerned
people who have various backgrounds.
