A Novel Medical Image Compression Using Ripplet transform

Abstract— A Novel Medical Image Compression Using Ripplet transform. Now-a-days the medical image compression plays a major role in the image processing. Even though the technology is improvised but still it needs the storage space and efficient bandwidth utilization. This paper presents the compression of grey scale medical images. The proposed method uses a new transform called Ripplet Transform, a higher dimensional generalization of the curvelet transform used to represent the images or two dimensional signals at different scales and different directions and Huffman algorithm to encode significant coefficients. < Final Year Projects > The main goal of this method is to improve the compression ratio and to minimize the mean square error. From the experimental results obtained it is proved that the compression ratio and the peak to signal noise ratio is achieved high for various Medical images.
