A Color Palette entity specifies a color palette suitable for application to a grayscale image.
A Color Palette is not related to other Information Entities of the DICOM real-world model, as it is not associated with a specific patient. The E-R model for the Color Palette IOD is shown in Figure A.58.2-1.
Table A.58.3-1 lists the modules that make up the Color Palette IOD.
The number of bits for each entry in the Lookup Table Data is constrained in the Palette Color Lookup Table Module to be 8 in this IOD.
