Multiple image compression using wavelet based methods including Discrete Wavelet Transform (DWT) through sub band coding (SBC) and decoding are reviewed for their comparative study. True color image compression measuring parameters like compression ratio (CR), peak to signal noise ratio (PSNR), mean square error (MSE), bits per pixel (BPP) are computed using MATLAB code for each algorithm employed. Gray scale image like Magnetic Resonance Imaging (MRI) is chosen for wavelet transform to achieve encoding and decoding using multiple wavelet families and resolutions to examine their relative merits and demerits. Our main objective is to establish advantages of multiple compression techniques (compressions using multiresolution) helpful in transmitting bulk of compressed medical images via different gadgets facilitating early detection and diagnosis followed by treatments or referrals to specialists residing in different parts of the world. Contemporary compression techniques based on wavelet transform can serve as revolutionary idea in medical field for the overall benefit of humanity.

In this research we undertake a study of image compression based on the discrete cosine transform(DCT) and discrete wavelet transform(DWT). Then a hybrid color image compression algorithm based on DCT and DWT is proposed. This algorithm is implemented through transform the color image using DWT in the YCbCr space first, and then DCT in the low frequency, adopt huffman coding, RLE and arithmetic coding in the encoded mode. In experiments, the results outperform the only DCT and the only DWT typically higher in peak signal-to-noise ratio and have better visual quality.

JPEG2000 algorithm has been developed based on the DWT techniques, which have shown how the results achieved in different areas in information technology can be applied to enhance the performance. Lossy image compression algorithms sacrifice perfect image reconstruction in favor of decreased storage requirements. Wavelets have become a popular technology for information redistribution for high-performance image compression algorithms. Lossy compression algorithms sacrifice perfect image reconstruction in favor of improved compression rates while minimizing image quality lossy.
