This paper presents an efficient lossless compression method for 4-D medical images based on the advanced video coding scheme (H.264/AVC). The proposed method efficiently reduces data redundancies in all four dimensions by recursively applying multiframe motion compensation. Performance evaluations on real 4-D medical images of varying modalities including functional magnetic resonance show an improvement in compression efficiency of up to three times that of other state-of-the-art compression methods such as 3D-JPEG2000.
本文提出了一种基于先进视频编码方案(H.264/AVC)的高效4D医学图像无损压缩方法。该方法通过递归应用多帧运动补偿,有效减少了所有四个维度的数据冗余。对包括功能磁共振成像在内的不同模态的真实4D医学图像进行的性能评估表明,其压缩效率提高了,最高可达其他现有最先进压缩方法(如3D-JPEG2000)的三倍。
