A Method of Effective Bits Reduction based on Human Perception in Medical Image

의료 영상에서 인간 지각 특성을 이용한 효과적인 비트수 줄임 방법

Recently, TFT-LCD is widely used of medicine machine on the display devices. However, the display precision of TFT-LCD is 8 bits instead of 10 bits of CRT display. If the medical image have more than 8 bits, we must requantize the medical image. We propose an efficient method to reduce medical image from 10 bits into 8 bits by employing human visual perception. The proposed method shows good performance for the medical image display.
