Abstract
A method and a system of generating a color-coded image demonstrating blood flow in a chosen area in a patient, specifically for diagnosing medical conditions like ischemia, strokes and infarcts. A plurality of images, preferably 3, are taken at different points in time that are a few seconds apart, and colorized by different colors, preferably a first image red, a second image blue and a third image green. These colorized images are then aligned and summated to create a multicolor image that time encodes perfusion of blood. Preferably, said method is performed after injection of a contrast agent.
