Yes, you can do it in Photoshop. I did it once but I have forgotten how
during my culture shock.

I will investigate.

Open Photoshop:
Open grayscale image, convert to RGB
Image>Adjust>Curves 
Select "red" move curve to select part of gray scale to be red
Select "Green" ditto for green
Select "blue" ditto for blue.

Subject: Grayscale to color conversion question

Hi, is it possible to convert a grayscale image to a
false color version where, let's say dark areas of the
grayscale image appear blue in color version and light
areas red with in-between densities shades of green mixed
with blue, greenish, and green mixed with red. If you know
what I mean!!

I guess it would be like taking a spectrum and assigning
each color a numerical value from 1-255 and then "mapping"
these onto a grayscale image.

yes? no? how?

Help appreciated either way.
