Abstract
With the recent developments in sensors, communications and image acquisition methods, limited data storage, the need of medical image compression is on rising. The data compression plays a vital role in medical imaging science. The data compression provides the compression to each pixel of medical images without changes in actual information. This chapter presents an overview of image compression methods, types of compression methods, and its need in medical imaging science.
