What the meaning of color in the cluster and time intensity curves (TICs)?

Each cluster is displayed in different color. Their time intensity curve is displayed in the same color. In the visualization GUI, each region of interesting (ROI) is also displayed in a different color with its TIC with the same color.

What the meaning of color in the pathological view?

The pathological view will give a score for each tissue which represents the difference between the selected tissue and healthy tissue. The score is defined by the cosine equation between the target and reference TICs. Results close to 1 indicate a healthy region and are marked with a green color while red colored regions are potentially diseased areas
