Abstract

The objective of this paper is to evaluate the algorithms of data compression that can be used in the medical environment. the Vector Quantization (VQ) method for data compression is evaluated in comparison to fractal compression. Three different modalities of biomedical image are used. Both compression methods with a fixed compression ratio are evaluated by the peak signal to noise ratio (PSNR) of decompressed image and processing time.
