This is very interesting! I can't wait to learn more about it. There are, however, some questions to consider:
- For a given procedure, will the radiation dose be higher than its corresponding 'black and white' X-Ray?
- If the radiation dose is higher, does the color add additional information or does it increase the diagnostic capabilities? Traditional X-rays (CT) already distinguish between soft-tissue, bone, fat, cartilage... so will the color distinguish structures within soft-tissue?
