Compression and Decompression of Color MRI Image by Huffman Coding

MRI image (Magnetic Resonance Imaging) as a universal body checkup method in modern medicine. It can help doctors to analyze the condition of patients as soon as possible. As the medical images, the MRI images have high quality and a large amount of data, which requires more transmission time and larger storage capacity. To reduce transmission time and storage capacity, the compression and decompression technology is applied. Now most MRI images are colour, but most theses still use gray MRI images to research. Compressed color MRI images is a new research area. In this thesis, some basic theories of the compression technoloy and medical technology were firstly introduced, then basic strcture and kernel algorithm of Huffman coding were explained in detail. Finally, Huffman coding was implemented in MATLAB to compress and decompress the colour MRI images.The result of the experiment shows that the Huffman coding in colour MRI image compression can get high compression ratio and coding efficient.
