Scalable medical data compression and transmission using wavelet transform for telemedicine applications.

Scalable medical data compression and transmission using wavelet transform for telemedicine applications.

In this paper, a novel medical data compression algorithm, termed layered set partitioning in hierarchical trees (LSPIHT) algorithm, is presented for telemedicine applications. In the LSPIHT, the encoded bit streams are divided into a number of layers for transmission and reconstruction. Starting fr...
