Abstract: Evaluation of the perception of colors by mammals with a view to obtaining a characteristic biomarker of each tested subject takes advantage of the slow pupillary oscillatory response to generate an objective neurological signature of this perception of colors. A method based on pupil frequency tagging is used at a tagging frequency Ftag adapted to the pupil response speed. A dynamic two-color stimulus is displayed, this stimulus comprising a two-color pattern the colors of which are inverted at the frequency Ftag, one of the colors gradually varying in a range of possible values. From the pupillary response, a signal representative of the oscillation power of the pupil is generated. The minimum of this signal corresponds to the relative iso-luminance of the tested pair of colors.

Abstract: The present invention improves the quality of the magnitude and phase images produced in medical imaging, in particular in the case of multi-antenna MRI. The invention proposes to generate (28) such an image (I) by summing the complex image data (pj,{tilde over (p)}j) obtained from different antennas by weighting these data using only the diagonal elements (Rj,j) of an antenna noise covariance matrix or its inverse or pseudo-inverse matrix (Rj,j?1). A reference antenna (Ref) may be determined (24), so as to be able to replace (26), in each of these datum, a phase component specific to the acquisition antenna by a reference phase component. The reference antenna is preferably a virtual antenna formed by linear combination of the antennas of the MRI system. If significant improvements are obtained in the phase image resulting from the summation, a very clear gain is also surprisingly obtained in the magnitude image.
