Abstract

Transmission of medical images over the internet has become common in telemedicine services. Telemedicine is an enabler for rural health care services where network quality varies over time and there is a need for robustness in presence of poor network quality and efficient use of bandwidth. At the same time, the quality of medical images cannot be compromised with network constraints. In this work, a progressive transmission system with an efficient compression scheme is proposed for the effectual transmission of medical images over the internet with consideration for optimal use of network bandwidth. The image quality can be fine-tuned based on network bandwidth availability and user requirements.
