چکیده

Compressions based on wavelet transform are the state-of-the-art compression technique used in medical image compression. For medical images it is critical to produce high compression performance while minimizing the amount of image data so the data can be stored economically. The wavelet-based compression scheme contains transformation, quantization, and lossless entropy coding. For the transformation stage, discrete wavelet transform and lifting schemes are introduced. The paper is concluded by discussing the applications of the wavelet-based image compression on medical images and radiologic practice.

Assessment of the Wavelet Transform for Noise Reduction in Simulated PET Images

Introduction: An efficient method of tomographic imaging in nuclear medicine is positron emission tomography (PET). Compared to SPECT, PET has the advantages of higher levels of sensitivity, spatial resolution and more accurate quantification. However, high noise levels in the image limit its diagnostic utility. Noise removal in nuclear medicine is traditionally based on Fourier decomposition o...

A New Method of Image Compression Using Improved SPIHT and MFHWT

In this paper a new method of image data compression for medical images has been proposed to achieve high PSNR (Peak Signal to Noise Ratio). Image compression using Set Partitioning In Hierarchical Trees (SPIHT) transform is being compared with the other well known wavelets like Discrete Cosine Transform (DCT), Discrete Wavelet Transform (DWT), Dual Tree Complex Wavelet Transform (DTCWT) and Em...
