Abstract

In the computer processing of dynamic images (cinefilm, TV) data volume and rates are usually excessively high. This is because of the addition of two spatial demensions to the normal time-domain processing problem. It has therefore been necessary to reduce the spatial and intensity resolution of the converted images. This paper examines the errors resulting from these quantization trade-offs, as applied to several medical image processing problems.
