The bluish appearance of veins in the skin tissue was experimentally investigated by in vivo and in vitro measurements. The color of skin surface including veins inside was evaluated by spectrophotometry and color analysis in the CIEXYZ and CIELAB colorimetric systems. The bluish appearance was successfully interpreted by the dominant wavelength and the color difference. Results for in vitro experiments showed that the degree of bluish appearance depends on the depth and diameter of blood vessels.
