A Region of Interest Approach For Medical Image Compression • Salih Burak Gokturk • Stanford University
OVERVIEW • Motivation • Previous Work • Comparison Study of Compression Schemes • ROI based System Design • Conclusion
Motivation • Medical images are huge.(300x512x512x2) • High quality imaging is required in diagnostically important regions. • ROI based approach is the only solution: • Lossless compression in ROI. • Very lossy compression in non-ROI.
OVERVIEW • Motivation • Previous Work • Comparison Study of Compression Schemes • ROI based System Design • Conclusion
Previous Work • Lossless Compression Schemes (Takaya95, Assche00) • DCT based Compression Schemes (Vlaciu95) • PCA based Compression(Tao96) • Wavelet Transformation(2D and 3D) (Baskurt93) • ROI based coding (Cosman 94,95)
OVERVIEW • Motivation • Previous Work • Comparison Study of Compression Schemes • ROI based System Design • Conclusion
Lossless Compression • Entropy of images – 7.93bpp • Predictive Coding – 5.9bpp • Entropy of difference images – 5.76bpp

PCA Compression - Treat each image block as a vector Rate ~ 0.54 bpp MSE ~ 30 dB
Blockwise Vector Quantization(1) - A simpler decoder is required
Blockwise Vector Quantization(2) MSE ~ 39 dB MSE ~ 38 dB
Motion Compensated Hybrid Coding (1) - Lukas Kanade Tracker was used by 0.1 pixel accuracy
Motion Compensated Hybrid Coding (2) • Entropy of the motion vector is 2.28 and 2.45 in x and y. • This brings 0.018 bpp. MSE ~ 35 dB
OVERVIEW • Motivation • Previous Work • Comparison Study of Compression Schemes • ROI based System Design • Conclusion
Segmentation • Thresholding to find the air • Gradient magnitude to extract the colon wall • Grassfire operation to find the ROI around the colon wall
Experiment with 16 by 16 Blocks • The ratio of ROI ~ %12.2 • Entropy of motion vector is 2.28 in x and 2.45 in y • The entropy of the error image is ~ 4.38 • average RMS error 33.7 dB with lossless in ROI • Overall rate 0.552 bps MSE ~ 33.7 dB
Experiment with 8 by 8 Blocks • The ratio of ROI ~ %7.3 • Entropy of motion vector is 1.82 in x and 1.96 in y • The entropy of the error image is ~ 4.31 • average RMS error 30.3 dB with lossless in ROI • Overall rate 0.37 bps MSE ~ 30.3 dB MSE ~ 33.7 dB
OVERVIEW • Motivation • Previous Work • Comparison Study of Compression Schemes • ROI based System Design • Conclusion
Conclusion • Effective System (compression rate of %2.3) • Accurate System (lossless in ROI) • Results of ROI based compression over performs standard compression schemes. • Future work includes lossy compression in ROI. • Case study with the radiologist for determining rate-diagnosis performance curve.
