Medical image compression by sampling DCT coefficients.

Medical image compression by sampling DCT coefficients.

Advanced medical imaging requires storage of large quantities of digitized clinical data. Due to the constrained bandwidth and storage capacity, however, a medical image must be compressed before transmission and storage. Among the existing compression schemes, transform coding is one of the most ef...
