Summary:
Improve color contrast in two functions of the slides page.
1:Text in header
2: DICOM Button
Improve accessibility by ensuring proper color contrast, Low Vision, and Colorblindness support

Background:
To improve accessibility, the issue was verified with LightHouse and axe DevTools v4.77.1. The above two functions do not satisfy either of the color contrast criteria in WCAG 1.4.3, which is 4.5:1 for level AA and level AAA.
Low Vision and Colorblindness have difficulty recognizing text in the header and do not quickly understand its role on the page. Additionally, it improves the situation where it is difficult to recognize that the button is a DICOM button.
To resolve them, the color contrast needs to be changed.
Use Cases:
It is assumed that this is the slides page that is viewed immediately after a page transition.
Improved color contrast allows everyone to read the overview in the header in a short time.
Eliminate the time everyone spends looking for DICOM buttons, and support correct operation.

Implementation:
Improves visibility by adjusting the color contrast ratio without significantly changing color, without causing discomfort to the user.

Expected Impact:
Improved visibility for people with low vision and color blindness.
Additional Notes:
Accessibility analysis tools used:
LightHouse: https://chromewebstore.google.com/detail/lighthouse/blipmdconlkpinefehnmjammfjpmpbjk?hl=ja
axe DevTool : https://www.deque.com/axe/devtools/
And both found color contrast issues.
