Abstract :
Discusses a method of compression of 3-D MRI images. A subband coding scheme with an octave splitting is proposed. The higher frequency subbands are encoded using an octtree structure. Octtrees provide a convenient data structure to store the sparse information present in the higher frequency subbands. Each unit block of the octtree is coded using a hybrid vector and scalar quantization scheme. The baseband is encoded using a DPCM based method using a nonlinear neural network predictor. This scheme provides an elegant way of compression of MRI images with minimum error
