Objective

To explore the characteristics of tongue color in patients with primary liver cancer (PLC).


Methods

Tongue color and its RGB value were analyzed quantitatively for PLC patients in different clinical periods and other cancer patients by analysis system for comprehensive information of tongue diagnosis.


Results

The rate of blue and purple tongue was higher (P <0.05) and all the values of RGB were lower (P <0.01) in PLC patients compared with other cancer patients. In different clinical periods, the rate of blue and purple tongue in stage Ⅲ was the highest (P <0.05).


Conclusion

The blue and purple tongue is one of the most important tongue characteristics of PLC patients.

Key words: tongue, color, liver neoplasms, clinical research, image processing, computer-assisted
