Changing the color of image

How can I change the white portion of the attached picture to blue and the black portion to a yellow/greenish color? Basically what I want to do is changing the picture from black and white to yellow and blue gradient. Thank you in advance!

Hello Eric,
You can use the "winter" colormap to change the color of the image with a gradient of colours from green to blue.
img = imread("blackNWhite body scan.jpg");
I_gray = rgb2gray(img);
% Normalize the grayscale image to be used with the colormap
I_norm = mat2gray(I_gray);
% Apply a colormap (e.g., 'hot') to the grayscale representation
colormap_map = winter(256); % Create a colormap
I_colored = ind2rgb(im2uint8(I_norm), colormap_map);
imshow(I_colored);
