Abstract

This paper presents a survey for medical image compression for both lossy and lossless approaches. This survey discusses twenty-five publications with several applied lossy and lossless compression techniques. All approaches are distributed into seven groups based on the applied technique. Fractals, wavelet, region of interest (ROI) and non-region of interest (Non-ROI), and other approaches represent four lossy compression groups. Adaptive block size, least square, and other approaches represent three lossless medical image compression techniques. Technically, medical image communication requires large space to be represented and sent over the network creating a number of challenges in terms of interaction, processing, storage, and transmission operations. Therefore, significant compression ratio (CR) and peak signal-to-noise ratio (PSNR) are always targeted in image communication. Both CR and PSNR are considered in this survey as the main metrics to investigate and evaluate models performance. As a result of this survey analysis, ROI and Non-ROI has shown the best average CR with 91, and wavelet has shown the best average PSNR with 80.
