Study of Factors Involved in Tongue Color Diagnosis by Kampo Medical Practitioners Using the Farnsworth-Munsell 100 Hue Test and Tongue Color Images

Figure 2

Color discrimination was evaluated by the Farnsworth-Munsell 100 Hue Test. The color discrimination is evaluated based on the subject’s attempt to rearrange the caps into the correct hue order. Total Hue scores are calculated as the number of misplacements, and a lower score therefore indicates better color discrimination. The tongue color regions (TCRs) correspond to caps number 64–78.
