Abstract
The effectiveness of Hilbert scan in lossless medical images compression is discussed. In our methods, after coding of intensities, the pixels in a medical images have been decorrelated with differential pulse code modulation, then the error image has been rearranged using Hilbert scan, finally we implement five coding schemes, such as Huffman coding, RLE, lZW coding, Arithmetic coding, and RLE followed by Huffman coding. The experiments show that the case, which applies DPCM followed by Hilbert scan and then compressed by the Arithmetic coding scheme, has the best compression result, also indicate that Hilbert scan can enhance pixel locality, and increase the compression ratio effectively.
