Hi Pedro,

As I think you already guess, the answer is no,
 there is no way to transform a a visible light image to a UV image.

A digital image is a array of numbers representing the exposures on an array of photodiodes.
A color image is made when the photodiodes have red, green or blue color filters over them,
so they only record the fraction of light that has the correct color..

A true UV image requires a special UV sensitive sensor and UV transmitting lens and a visible light blocking filter.
(Normal sensors are covered by glass and lenses are made of glass which blocks the UV light.)

If you mean a fluorescent image taken under UV light, then the illumination must be correct when the image is taken.

Hi,
Just take to your account blue image (from RGB).
It is possible to use it.
