摘要
We present here a technique for MR image compression. It is based on a transform coding scheme using the wavelet transform and vector quantization. Experimental results show that the method offers high compression ratios with low degradation of the image quality. The technique is expected to be particularly useful wherever storing and transmitting large numbers of images is necessary.
