Charting was introduced to Slicer 4 in February of 2012

Introduction

Chart colors will be either derived from the generic LUT below, or, where appropriate, will be taken from the LUT used for the input data.

Notes

2010 Generic Anatomy Colors for use with the Slicer3 Editor Module as a default color table for editing medical image data with no prior knowledge of the condition, modality, or specific anatomical region being displayed. When additional protocol knowledge is available (i.e. angiography of the brain) a different color table with more specific labels may be chosen.

Authors: Michael Halle, Florin Talos, Ron Kikinis, Steve Pieper, Nicole Aucoin.


Lookup table

This color table uses approximately equal steps in hue to define a color palette that allows each color to be distinguish and visually pleasing. Based on the papers by Maureen Stone "Expert Color Choices for Presenting Data" and "Choosing Colors for Data Visualization". This palette is good for categorical data.
