Abstract : In this paper we presented a color mapping according to the hippocampus shape of brain MR images. Many
researchers have been doing quantitative analysis of hippocampus during the late period. When the clinician reads out the
MR image promptly and diagnoses it, the shape of the color mapping hippocampus is required. Conventionally the medical
color images were visualized according to the brightness/intensity. However, we performed a new color mapping by two
methods in this study. First, looking at the central axis of the hippocampus, from this, we found the edge pixels where the
vertical plane meets, and performed color mapping according to the distance from the center axis. In the second, we found
the head and tail of the hippocampus and drew a line, and the distance from the line to the edge of the vertical plane was
calculated and mapped into color. Finally, the color visualization of hippocampus was obtained in good results. If it is used
in clinical practice, it can be used easily and precisely because it can see the exactly shape of hippocampus at a glance.
