Abstract:Two Application Specific Integrated Circuits (ASIC) have been developed for hierarchical representation and compression of medical images for Picture Archiving & Communication System (PACS) environments. Hierarchical image representation enables progressive transmission of images and provides an economic means of rapidly surveying several images simultaneously. Furthermore, it facilitates the adaptation of high resolution images to displays with lower resolution. Compression enables efficient use of storage me… Show more
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
