Abstract :
Summary form only given. A novel method for the compression of angiogram video sequences is presented. The approach consists of a 3D wavelet encoding algorithm, incorporating a region of interest (ROI) estimation model to provide higher-quality image reconstruction in areas considered to be diagnostically significant. This is coupled with a texture modelling procedure, which provides a model for some of the high frequency wavelet coefficients corresponding to diagnostically insignificant regions. This allows some of the wavelet coefficients to be represented extremely efficiently. The results are evaluated by trained cardiologists and show some promise.
