A proposal of a standard rainbow false color scale for thermal medical images

Medical thermal imaging offers the opportunity of human body physiology monitoring. The frequent use of false color scales in those images has the objective of being a visual aid for human eye interpretation. However, several scales are being used, which may lead to different subjective interpretations. Is objective of this study to raise the need of uniformity in adoption of an internationally accepted standard false color scale and for that purpose a scale is proposed.
