# image type after an ifft reconstruction

I reconstruct images from MRI k-space using ifft and root-sum-of-squares method.

imRef = ifftshift(ifftshift(ifft(ifft( ifftshift(ifftshift( kspacedata,1),2),[],1),[],2),1),2);
imSOS    = squeeze(sqrt(sum( abs(angle(imRef)).^2, 3)));
imagesc(abs(imSOS))

k = abs(imSOS);
disp(class(k)); %double


Class of image matrix k is shown as double.

Is the image matrix k an indexed image or intensity image?

The sample values from reconstructed image k is shown below.

By referrring http://in.mathworks.com/help/matlab/creating_plots/image-types.html, I learned that for indexed images, the data matrix is represented by integers which are indices to color map. And if it were intensity images, I feel the data range is somewhere between 0 and 1. If k represents an indexed image, how can I know the colormap associated with it?

Thanks.
