Background & Aims: Nowadays, new attitudes of clients, patients and students toward the quality of health care services, have led to unifying different systems in educational centers, which has been recognized as quality management system. The ISO standard series have created systems that integrate intra and inter organization processes to improve the quality of health services. The aim of the ...

the robustness property can be added to dsc system at the expense of reducing performance, i.e., increasing the sum-rate. the aim of designing robust dsc schemes is to trade off between system robustness and compression efficiency. in this paper, after deriving an inner bound on the rate–distortion region for the quadratic gaussian mdc based rdsc system with two encoders, the structure of the r...

in this paper, an object-based, highly scalable, lossy-to-lossless 3d wavelet coding approach for volumetric medical image data (e.g. mr and ct) is proposed. the new method, called 3dobhs-spiht, is based on the well known set partitioning in hierarchical trees (spiht) algorithm and supports both quality and resolution scalability. the 3d input data is grouped into groups of slices (gos) and eac...
