Abstract
A method of displaying a colorized luma image includes illuminating tissue under observation with illumination light and excitation light. A color image from reflectance of the illumination light and a fluorescence image produced by illuminating the tissue under observation with the excitation light are simultaneously detected at an image sensor to produce image data comprising both color image data and fluorescence image data. A luma image from the detected color image data is computed and the luma image is colorized based on the detected fluorescence image data. The colorized luma image is then displayed.
