ABSTRACT
Teleophthalmology illustrated by transmission of retinal images and data between users is one of the promising
fields in medicine. Colossal bandwidth is essential for transmitting retinal images over the wireless network. So
the most essential aspiration of proposed system is to provide an efficient tool for defining to maximize
compression and reconstruct image portions lossless for high speed, efficient transmission and diminution in
storage space. This paper is proposed to investigate multiple compression techniques based on Region of
Interest (ROI). In the diagnosis of retinal images, the significant part is separated out from the rest of the image
using improved adaptive fuzzy C means algorithm and Integer multi wavelet transform is applied to enhance the
visual quality in significant part. The region of less significance are compressed using SPIHT algorithm and
finally modified embedded zero tree wavelet algorithm is applied which uses six symbols was applied whole
image then Huffman coding is applied to get the compressed image for transmission. The proposed algorithm
would give better quality, if the images used ROI compared to that of the other methods. The proposed
techniques can be evaluated for performance using Compression Ratio (CR), Peak Signal to Noise Ratio
(PSNR), Normalized Average Error (NAE), Average Difference (AD), Maximum Difference (MD), Mean
Square Error (MSE), Root Mean Square Error (RMSE), Signal to Noise Ratio (SNR), Normalized Cross
Correlation (NCC), Structural Content (SC), Encoding and Decoding time. The consequence scrutinized using
MATLAB and realized in hardware. As the conclusion, the inaccessible patients used a low cost access to
specialist’s eye checkups at crucial healthcare clinics, and at the same time, diminish unnecessary face-to-face
consultation at the hospital specialist’s center.
Keywords: Retinal Images, Image Compression, Region of Interest, Integer Multi wavelet Transform, SHIPT,

Introduction

One of the most important organs of human
body is eye, which gives the sensation of vision
including color differentiation and perception of
depth due to the presence of rods and cones in the
retina. Definitely, the blindness result produces in
both physical and emotional disturbance for every
patient. This situation is most likely due to an acute
scarcity of ophthalmology specialists in many areas
and the distribution of ophthalmologists is remote
from uniform such that there are much more eye
disease patients in the rural regions, e.g., in India,
79% eye patients reside in rural areas. To resolve this
trouble, as a promising technology-based solution,
telemedicine, enables the doctor to discuss with the
patient remotely through video conferencing, share
data, and images the patient so as to reduce the
unnecessary referrals and travel cost.
Teleophthalmology is the branch of the
telemedicine. In conventional ophthalmology, most of
the analytic ophthalmic instrumentations are adapted
www.ijera.com

to accumulate still and/or video cameras to acquire
images so that ophthalmologists create analytic
inferences. Retinal images are acquired by a
specialized camera called fundus camera. Mydriatic
and non-mydriatic fundus cameras are used for retinal
photography.Mydriatic camera requires dilation of
pupils. It provides good quality fundus images than
non mydriatic camera.
Teleophthalmology system will provide eye
consultation by delivering high-quality eye images
and videos over a public broadband network, so as to
utilize the use of communication technologies to give
ophthalmology services, share and optimize medical
expertise
locally,
as
well
as
globally.
Teleophthalmology was focused on particular eye
problem, such as diabetic retinopathy and macular
degeneration.
Diabetic retinopathy (DR) occurs in patients
suffering from diabetes, which causes damage to the
retina of the eye. This finally leads to total vision loss.
Diabetes is caused due to the body’s inability to store

and make use of the sugar level in the blood. Diabetic
retinopathy causes damage to the blood vessels in the
retina, and this cause fluid to leak to leak into the
macula region of the retina causing it to enlarge and
leading to blurred vision. Diabetic retinopathy has
two types namely non proliferative and proliferative
type.
Age related macular degeneration (AMD)
occurs in the older group peoples, which affects the
macula and degeneration of capillaries in fundus and
in the central part of retina. This occurs due to the non
functionality of the Bruch’s membrane, which passes
the waste products and the nutrients to the retina from
the choroid. Fluid leaks out from the damaged vessels
and deposited at the center of macula, which results
blurring, obscuring or distorting vision. These liquid
deposits are called exudates.
Huge amount of image is produced in the
field of medical image, which can be stored in picture
archiving and communication system (PACS). So, it
is really hard for hospitals to manage the storing
facilities for the same. Moreover, such high data
demand for high end network especially for
transmitting the images over the network such as in
telemedicine. So compression is used and can be
categorized into two categories: lossless and lossy
compressions.
Lossless image compression is achieved if
original input image is recovered perfectly from
compressed data while lossy image compression
cannot regenerate original image data. Lossy image
compression, can maintain most details of original
image, useful for diagnosis. Precise image detail
preservation is not strictly required as an image’s
degraded portion is usually often not visible to
humans. But lossy image compression is not commonly used in clinical practice/diagnosis because
even with slight loss of data, it is possible for
physicians/radiologists to miss critical diagnostic
information that is needed for diagnosis of a patient.
Historically, medical image compression was investigated by researchers working in the image fields.
Consequently, technological growth in this field is a
by-product of progress in the more general field of
natural image. There is no golden rule: different
coding algorithms fit different types of images and
scenarios best. Depending on imaging modalities and
applications, some are better suited than others to
fulfill certain targets in terms of compression factor or
with respect to a desired functionality. A challenging
requirement concerns the visually lossless mode.
Compression is not about storage costs alone. It is
also about transmission time, imaging apparatus
utilization and the patient’s convenience/comfort.
Compression techniques by reducing file size and
transmission time can thereby improve overall care.
Image compression techniques take advantage of any
occurring redundancy. There are different redundancy
types and each compression methodology exploits

www.ijera.com

one of these. The different redundancy types are
spatial, temporal and spectral.
Present compression schemes have high
compression rates when quality loss can be afforded.
But physicians cannot afford deficiencies in image
regions which are important, known as Regions of
Interest (ROIs). An approach which brings high
compression rates accompanied by good quality in
ROIs is needed. A common idea is to preserve quality
in diagnostically critical regions while allowing lossy
encoding of other regions. The research’s aim focuses
on ROI coding to ensure use of multiple and
arbitrarily shaped ROIs in images, with arbitrary
weights describing the importance for each ROI
including background (i.e. image regions not of ROI)
so that latter regions can be represented by varying
levels of quality.
In medical images, some structures in the
data are of interest. These structures typically occupy
a small percentage of the data, but their analysis
requires contextual information like locations within a
specific organ or adjacency to sensitive structures.
Therefore, while focusing on a particular region of the
data, designated as a Region of Interest (ROI),
contextual information surrounding that region is
important. However, the same amount of detail is not
required for the context and the ROI. Improved
Adaptive Fuzzy C-means logic is used to separate out
ROI by extracting image features. After performing
segmentation lossless compression is applied to
significant region i.e., Integer Multi Wavelet
Transform and lossy is applied to rest of the image
i.e., SPIHT. The lossless and lossy compression part
is combined and whole image is applied modified
embedded zero wavelet for improve the PSNR and
Huffman coding is applied for file transmission. The
specialist hospital will receive compressed image then
it will decompress with better quality of image.

Methodology

The proposed system is a novel telemedicine
application, which meets the special requirements of
tele-ophthalmologic field using secure image
transmission via public Internet networks. It assuages
the network bandwidth bottleneck by modeling the
network bandwidth usage.

The Teleophthalmology system has two
kinds of locations. Without loss of generality, one
location is called clinic and another is called hospital.
The patient’s medical data will be captured by
instruments (e.g., camera and ophthalmoscope) in the
clinic. At the other end, the ophthalmologist will
receive the patient’s medical data and provide
consultation advice in the hospital. The clinic system
is responsible for patient registration, medical
examination, and patient consultation. It is equipped
with three monitors. The first monitor enables a clinic
physician to register the patient bio data and capture
the retinal image in real time.
The proposed system accepts input image
and produces segmented image as output. It consists
of various modules namely preprocessing unit,
segmentation, compression and decompression unit.
The proposed system starts with the input image,
preprocessing of the image is done for removing the
noise for a better segmentation. After preprocessing,
segmentation and tracking are performed. A model
fitting technique is to be proposed after tracking the
borders. The tracked borders are to be decomposed
into meaningful regional parameters. The original
image can be reconstructed from the compressed
image using inverse transforms to the above proposed
algorithm model.
2.1. Noise Removal
In order to make the image noise free,
preprocessing should be performed as the first step.
Preprocessing phase of the images is necessary to
improve the quality of the images and make the
images more reliable for further processing.
Preprocessing is always a necessity whenever the
image to be compressed in noisy, inconsistent or
incomplete and it significantly improves the
effectiveness of the image compression techniques.
Wiener filtering is a method of restoring images in the
presence of noise and blur.
2.2. Extraction of ROI
To separate out ROI from the diagnosis
image, Improved Adaptive Fuzzy C-means Clustering
Algorithm (IAFCM) segmentation has to be
performed which plays a dominant role in image
analysis. IAFCM
improves the sensitivity,
segmentation and classification accuracy in the
existing system. The concept of Improved Adaptive
Fuzzy C-means Clustering Algorithm (IAFCM) is it
uses a new objective function with a different
regulation term, which appears to be more effective in
controlling the shape of the gain field. Improved
Adaptive Fuzzy C-means Clustering Algorithm
(IAFCM) avoids solving large differential equation
and gives much faster computational speed. Improved
Adaptive Fuzzy C-means Clustering Algorithm
(IAFCM) with a new objective function yields better
background compensation and results in improved
segmentation and classification Image segmentation

can be used in medical analysis where it is possible to
identify and analyze the defects and in compressing
some segments communication can be made possible
by saving network resource.
Clustering is a way to separate groups of
objects. C-means clustering treats each object as
having a location in space. C-means clustering
requires that you specify the number of clusters to be
partitioned and a distance metric to quantify how
close two objects are to each other. Color Base
Segmentation Using C-Means Clustering. The
solution of the above equation gives the optimum
values of (
, , ), which lead to the algorithm
described as IAFCM.



Initialize
with 1(i=1...N) and cluster centers
(k=1….NC) with random values within the
image intensity, Where NC is the number of
clusters.
 Update the membership function
 Update the cluster centers
 Calculate the gain field
 Update the gain field
Using the above equation the segmentation
of retinal images is done. The suggested approach at
first divide the image into sub regions according to
the distribution of various textural descriptors which
belongs to two main categories. First, co occurrence
matrices based features and second, coherence
analysis based measures are compared at this stage of
the proposed methodology. Each sub region is then
classified as texturally important or not utilizing fuzzy
logic unsupervised techniques. The textural features
for the sliding window size of M=8 for a 256 x 256
images are considered by calculating co occurrence
matrices and statistical metrics like Correlation,
entropy, Inverse difference moment, energy-angular
moment are calculated and coherence analysis is
performed for it. From the measures significant and
insignificant regions are determined using fuzzy logic
unsupervised techniques.
After determination of co occurrence
matrices, second method for deriving textural features
is the coherence analysis of the original image. The
coherence measures takes on low values in regions of
the textures with similar pixels and the variation is
higher in those points that are between the regions
with different textural structure. Then clustering
technique is performed to group pixels of similar
textures. Texturally significant and insignificant
patterns are grouped into labeling of two logic levels
“1” and “0”. A black and white image results for the
significant and insignificant partitions. In short, at

first texture properties are transformed in to fuzzy set.
Appropriate fuzzy membership functions are
determined and values corresponding to it are
assigned.
2.3. Lossless Compression Technique
The Integer Multi Wavelet Transform
(IMWT) is used to have lossless processing. The
IMWT is proposed for an integer implementation of a
multi wavelet system, based on the simple multi –
scalar function.. Multi wavelet transform is
implemented by multi filter with vector sequences as
its input and output. The wavelet transform (WT), in
general, produces floating point coefficients.
Although these coefficients can be used to reconstruct
an original image perfectly in theory, the use of finite
precision arithmetic and quantization results in a lossy
scheme. The advantages of IMWT are

Higher order of approximation

High energy compaction capability

Symmetry

Dynamic range of the coefficients will not be
largely amplified

Faster calculation
2.4. Lossy Compression Technique
SPIHT is an extension of the Embedded
Zero Tree Algorithm (EZW) and was developed by
Amir Said and William Pearlman in 1996. It has been
known to give significantly impressive results in
image compression as compared to other techniques.
The SPIHT algorithm offers significantly improved
quality over other image compression techniques such
as vector quantization, JPEG and wavelets combined
with quantization. It offers characteristics such as:
 Good image quality with a high PSNR
 Optimized for progressive image transmission
 Fast coding and decoding
 Can be used for lossless compression
 Can be efficiently combined with error protection
The SPIHT Algorithm works in two phases:
First the wavelet transform of the input image is
computed and then the wavelet coefficients are
transmitted to the SPIHT coding engine. After the
discrete wavelet transform of the image has been
computed, SPIHT divides the wavelets in to spatial
orientation trees. Each node in the tree corresponds to
an individual pixel. Each pixel in the transformed
image is coded on basis of its significance by
comparing with a threshold value at each level. If the
value of a pixel or any of its offspring is below the
threshold, we can conclude that all of its descendants
are insignificant at that level and need not be passed.
After each pass, the threshold is divided by two and
the algorithm proceeds further. This way information
about the most significant bits of the wavelet
coefficients will always precede information on
lower-order significant bits, which is referred to as
bit-plane ordering.

The set partition in hierarchical trees
(SPIHT) coding algorithm is best in terms of
compression performance. Previously, the SPIHT was
designed for lossy data compression. By combining
the IMWT with the SPIHT, both the lossy and
lossless compression modes are now supported. The
major advantage of using SPIHT coding technique is
that, it supports embedded coding along with
progressive transmission, which is suitable for
telemedicine.
2.5. Modified EZW and Huffman Coding
In Shapiro’s EZW algorithm, a “zero tree”
consists of a parent and its off springs are
insignificant, then the ancestor is coded as zero trees.
If the value of the coefficient is lower than the
threshold and has one or more significant descendants
with respect to ‘j’th level, then they are coded as
“isolated zero”. The significant coefficients of the last
sub-bands, which do not accept descendants and are
not themselves descendants of a zero tree are also
considered to be zero trees. The significance symbols
of the image coefficients are then placed in the
dominant list. The amplitudes of the significant
coefficients are placed in the subordinate list. Their
values in the transformed image are set to zero in
order not to undergo the next step. Finally to the
above coefficients, Huffman coding is applied.
A bit corresponding to 2j-1 is emitted for all
the significant values in the refinement list S in order
to increase the precision of those values transmitted.
The coefficients are then converted into binary by the
coding technique. This process is repeated by
dividing the threshold by 2. The process is reiterated
until the desired quality of the reconstructed image is
reached or until the number of transferable bit
required is exceeded. The modified algorithm works
in the following way:
 Symbols were added to the significance test stage
to allow a better redistribution of the entropy.
 The coding of the dominant elements and the
subordinate list quantization bits was optimized.
If a coefficient is tested and found to be
significant, its off springs are also tested. If at least
one coefficient is significant, then the descendants are
coded according to the doing rules of the Shapiro’s
algorithm, which is the case for the coefficients. If a
coefficient is tested and found to be significant, its off
springs are also tested. If all the coefficients are
significant, then the descendants are coded with
symbols Pt, for positive coefficient and with symbol
Nt. Performing the above steps for the two
possibilities of coefficient values reduction in code
symbol of four results for the both the cases.
In Shapiro’s EZW algorithm, the dominant
list D is composed of four symbols, each one coded
into binary on two bits; these symbols are coded
Huffman coded before transmission. Huffman coding
assigns less codes for coefficients whose probabilities
of occurrence is high and vice versa for coefficients

whose probabilities of occurrence is low. The
significant size is obtained by binary regrouping of
several symbols.
After the compression, the compressed
image is transmitted over TCP at bit-rate 587 kb/s.
Then the hospital system received compressed image
and was decompressed image. The performance of
proposed system
had evaluated based on
Compression Ratio (CR), peak signal to noise ratio

Surely this will give better result compared with other
compression techniques within limited computational
complexity.

Result and Discussion

Teleophthalmology targets to provide a
virtual platform for eye consultation. Hence, it should
select suitable network bandwidth for balancing the
cost and QoS, and tolerate the network bandwidth
fluctuation. ROI-based compression computational
complexity is also one of the important issues to be
considered, while addressing real time applications.
But the method of separate transforms to the two
regions proves better results compared to the ordinary
way of applying only single transforms to the whole
image. The proposed method evaluated in MATLAB
platform.

Conclusion

This paper takes a detailed analysis of image
compression. With the growing demand for better
ROI-based Procedures for progressive transmission of
digital images: comparison bandwidth utilization,
efficient image data compression techniques have
emerged as an important factor for image data
transmission and storage. Different attributes of
compression such as compression ratio, peak signal to
noise ratio, bits per pixel can be calculated. Image
compression technique is used to reduce the number
of bits required in representing image, which helps to
reduce the storage space and transmission cost. The
proposed algorithm can compare the image quality
using different image attributes. We can conclude that
the system will provide the better visibility after the
image restoration. The implementation of ROI based
compression is providing better results as compared
with lossless algorithms, along with preservation of
diagnostically important information. Such image
compression system recommended for telemedicine.
Hence, it offers great potential of cutting down the
overall treatment costs, as it is able to maximize the
specialist productivity by having a specialist handling
many cases without having to commute to be
physically with the patients. Our real trials
demonstrate
that
the
telemedicine
via
teleophthalmology is promising.

Journal of Engineering Research and Applications ISSN : 2248-9622, Vol. 3, Issue 6, Nov-Dec 2013, pp.881-887 RESEARCH ARTICLE www.ijera.com OPEN ACCESS Retinal Image Compression In Favour Of Hasty Transmission Using Region of Interest E. Sivasankari1 D.Gowthami2 and Prof.R.Jayanthi3 1 (PG Scholar, Department of Electronics and Communication Engineering, Nandha College of Technology, Erode-52) 2 (PG Scholar, Department of Electronics and Communication Engineering, Nandha College of Technology, Erode-52) 3 (Assosiative Professor,Department of Electronics and Communication Engineering, Nandha College of Technology, Erode-638052) ABSTRACT Teleophthalmology illustrated by transmission of retinal images and data between users is one of the promising fields in medicine. Colossal bandwidth is essential for transmitting retinal images over the wireless network. So the most essential aspiration of proposed system is to provide an efficient tool for defining to maximize compression and reconstruct image portions lossless for high speed, efficient transmission and diminution in storage space. This paper is proposed to investigate multiple compression techniques based on Region of Interest (ROI). In the diagnosis of retinal images, the significant part is separated out from the rest of the image using improved adaptive fuzzy C means algorithm and Integer multi wavelet transform is applied to enhance the visual quality in significant part. The region of less significance are compressed using SPIHT algorithm and finally modified embedded zero tree wavelet algorithm is applied which uses six symbols was applied whole image then Huffman coding is applied to get the compressed image for transmission. The proposed algorithm would give better quality, if the images used ROI compared to that of the other methods. The proposed techniques can be evaluated for performance using Compression Ratio (CR), Peak Signal to Noise Ratio (PSNR), Normalized Average Error (NAE), Average Difference (AD), Maximum Difference (MD), Mean Square Error (MSE), Root Mean Square Error (RMSE), Signal to Noise Ratio (SNR), Normalized Cross Correlation (NCC), Structural Content (SC), Encoding and Decoding time. The consequence scrutinized using MATLAB and realized in hardware. As the conclusion, the inaccessible patients used a low cost access to specialist’s eye checkups at crucial healthcare clinics, and at the same time, diminish unnecessary face-to-face consultation at the hospital specialist’s center. Keywords: Retinal Images, Image Compression, Region of Interest, Integer Multi wavelet Transform, SHIPT, and Modified Embedded Zero Trees. I. Introduction One of the most important organs of human body is eye, which gives the sensation of vision including color differentiation and perception of depth due to the presence of rods and cones in the retina. Definitely, the blindness result produces in both physical and emotional disturbance for every patient. This situation is most likely due to an acute scarcity of ophthalmology specialists in many areas and the distribution of ophthalmologists is remote from uniform such that there are much more eye disease patients in the rural regions, e.g., in India, 79% eye patients reside in rural areas. To resolve this trouble, as a promising technology-based solution, telemedicine, enables the doctor to discuss with the patient remotely through video conferencing, share data, and images the patient so as to reduce the unnecessary referrals and travel cost. Teleophthalmology is the branch of the telemedicine. In conventional ophthalmology, most of the analytic ophthalmic instrumentations are adapted www.ijera.com to accumulate still and/or video cameras to acquire images so that ophthalmologists create analytic inferences. Retinal images are acquired by a specialized camera called fundus camera. Mydriatic and non-mydriatic fundus cameras are used for retinal photography.Mydriatic camera requires dilation of pupils. It provides good quality fundus images than non mydriatic camera. Teleophthalmology system will provide eye consultation by delivering high-quality eye images and videos over a public broadband network, so as to utilize the use of communication technologies to give ophthalmology services, share and optimize medical expertise locally, as well as globally. Teleophthalmology was focused on particular eye problem, such as diabetic retinopathy and macular degeneration. Diabetic retinopathy (DR) occurs in patients suffering from diabetes, which causes damage to the retina of the eye. This finally leads to total vision loss.

Diabetic retinopathy causes damage to the blood vessels in the retina, and this cause fluid to leak to leak into the macula region of the retina causing it to enlarge and leading to blurred vision. Diabetic retinopathy has two types namely non proliferative and proliferative type. Age related macular degeneration (AMD) occurs in the older group peoples, which affects the macula and degeneration of capillaries in fundus and in the central part of retina. This occurs due to the non functionality of the Bruch’s membrane, which passes the waste products and the nutrients to the retina from the choroid. Fluid leaks out from the damaged vessels and deposited at the center of macula, which results blurring, obscuring or distorting vision. These liquid deposits are called exudates. Huge amount of image is produced in the field of medical image, which can be stored in picture archiving and communication system (PACS). So, it is really hard for hospitals to manage the storing facilities for the same. Moreover, such high data demand for high end network especially for transmitting the images over the network such as in telemedicine. So compression is used and can be categorized into two categories: lossless and lossy compressions. Lossless image compression is achieved if original input image is recovered perfectly from compressed data while lossy image compression cannot regenerate original image data. Lossy image compression, can maintain most details of original image, useful for diagnosis. Precise image detail preservation is not strictly required as an image’s degraded portion is usually often not visible to humans. But lossy image compression is not commonly used in clinical practice/diagnosis because even with slight loss of data, it is possible for physicians/radiologists to miss critical diagnostic information that is needed for diagnosis of a patient. Historically, medical image compression was investigated by researchers working in the image fields. Consequently, technological growth in this field is a by-product of progress in the more general field of natural image. There is no golden rule: different coding algorithms fit different types of images and scenarios best. Depending on imaging modalities and applications, some are better suited than others to fulfill certain targets in terms of compression factor or with respect to a desired functionality. A challenging requirement concerns the visually lossless mode. Compression is not about storage costs alone. It is also about transmission time, imaging apparatus utilization and the patient’s convenience/comfort. Compression techniques by reducing file size and transmission time can thereby improve overall care. Image compression techniques take advantage of any occurring redundancy. There are different redundancy types and each compression methodology exploits www.ijera.com one of these. The different redundancy types are spatial, temporal and spectral. Present compression schemes have high compression rates when quality loss can be afforded. But physicians cannot afford deficiencies in image regions which are important, known as Regions of Interest (ROIs). An approach which brings high compression rates accompanied by good quality in ROIs is needed. A common idea is to preserve quality in diagnostically critical regions while allowing lossy encoding of other regions. The research’s aim focuses on ROI coding to ensure use of multiple and arbitrarily shaped ROIs in images, with arbitrary weights describing the importance for each ROI including background (i.e. image regions not of ROI) so that latter regions can be represented by varying levels of quality. In medical images, some structures in the data are of interest. These structures typically occupy a small percentage of the data, but their analysis requires contextual information like locations within a specific organ or adjacency to sensitive structures. Therefore, while focusing on a particular region of the data, designated as a Region of Interest (ROI), contextual information surrounding that region is important. However, the same amount of detail is not required for the context and the ROI. Improved Adaptive Fuzzy C-means logic is used to separate out ROI by extracting image features. After performing segmentation lossless compression is applied to significant region i.e., Integer Multi Wavelet Transform and lossy is applied to rest of the image i.e., SPIHT. The lossless and lossy compression part is combined and whole image is applied modified embedded zero wavelet for improve the PSNR and Huffman coding is applied for file transmission. The specialist hospital will receive compressed image then it will decompress with better quality of image. II. Methodology The proposed system is a novel telemedicine application, which meets the special requirements of tele-ophthalmologic field using secure image transmission via public Internet networks. It assuages the network bandwidth bottleneck by modeling the network bandwidth usage. Fig.1 Block Diagram of Proposed System www.ijera.com 882 | P a g e
  • 3. E. SIVASANKARI et al Int. Journal of Engineering Research and Applications ISSN : 2248-9622, Vol. 3, Issue 6, Nov-Dec 2013, pp.881-887 The Teleophthalmology system has two kinds of locations. Without loss of generality, one location is called clinic and another is called hospital. The patient’s medical data will be captured by instruments (e.g., camera and ophthalmoscope) in the clinic. At the other end, the ophthalmologist will receive the patient’s medical data and provide consultation advice in the hospital. The clinic system is responsible for patient registration, medical examination, and patient consultation. It is equipped with three monitors. The first monitor enables a clinic physician to register the patient bio data and capture the retinal image in real time. The proposed system accepts input image and produces segmented image as output. It consists of various modules namely preprocessing unit, segmentation, compression and decompression unit. The proposed system starts with the input image, preprocessing of the image is done for removing the noise for a better segmentation. After preprocessing, segmentation and tracking are performed. A model fitting technique is to be proposed after tracking the borders. The tracked borders are to be decomposed into meaningful regional parameters. The original image can be reconstructed from the compressed image using inverse transforms to the above proposed algorithm model. 2.1. Noise Removal In order to make the image noise free, preprocessing should be performed as the first step. Preprocessing phase of the images is necessary to improve the quality of the images and make the images more reliable for further processing. Preprocessing is always a necessity whenever the image to be compressed in noisy, inconsistent or incomplete and it significantly improves the effectiveness of the image compression techniques. Wiener filtering is a method of restoring images in the presence of noise and blur. 2.2. Extraction of ROI To separate out ROI from the diagnosis image, Improved Adaptive Fuzzy C-means Clustering Algorithm (IAFCM) segmentation has to be performed which plays a dominant role in image analysis. IAFCM improves the sensitivity, segmentation and classification accuracy in the existing system. The concept of Improved Adaptive Fuzzy C-means Clustering Algorithm (IAFCM) is it uses a new objective function with a different regulation term, which appears to be more effective in controlling the shape of the gain field. Improved Adaptive Fuzzy C-means Clustering Algorithm (IAFCM) avoids solving large differential equation and gives much faster computational speed. Improved Adaptive Fuzzy C-means Clustering Algorithm (IAFCM) with a new objective function yields better background compensation and results in improved segmentation and classification Image segmentation www.ijera.com www.ijera.com can be used in medical analysis where it is possible to identify and analyze the defects and in compressing some segments communication can be made possible by saving network resource. Clustering is a way to separate groups of objects. C-means clustering treats each object as having a location in space. C-means clustering requires that you specify the number of clusters to be partitioned and a distance metric to quantify how close two objects are to each other. Color Base Segmentation Using C-Means Clustering. The solution of the above equation gives the optimum values of ( , , ), which lead to the algorithm described as IAFCM.  Initialize with 1(i=1...N) and cluster centers (k=1….NC) with random values within the image intensity, Where NC is the number of clusters.  Update the membership function  Update the cluster centers  Calculate the gain field  Update the gain field Using the above equation the segmentation of retinal images is done. The suggested approach at first divide the image into sub regions according to the distribution of various textural descriptors which belongs to two main categories. First, co occurrence matrices based features and second, coherence analysis based measures are compared at this stage of the proposed methodology. Each sub region is then classified as texturally important or not utilizing fuzzy logic unsupervised techniques. The textural features for the sliding window size of M=8 for a 256 x 256 images are considered by calculating co occurrence matrices and statistical metrics like Correlation, entropy, Inverse difference moment, energy-angular moment are calculated and coherence analysis is performed for it. From the measures significant and insignificant regions are determined using fuzzy logic unsupervised techniques. After determination of co occurrence matrices, second method for deriving textural features is the coherence analysis of the original image. The coherence measures takes on low values in regions of the textures with similar pixels and the variation is higher in those points that are between the regions with different textural structure. Then clustering technique is performed to group pixels of similar textures. Texturally significant and insignificant patterns are grouped into labeling of two logic levels “1” and “0”. A black and white image results for the significant and insignificant partitions. In short, at 883 | P a g e

Appropriate fuzzy membership functions are determined and values corresponding to it are assigned. 2.3. Lossless Compression Technique The Integer Multi Wavelet Transform (IMWT) is used to have lossless processing. The IMWT is proposed for an integer implementation of a multi wavelet system, based on the simple multi – scalar function.. Multi wavelet transform is implemented by multi filter with vector sequences as its input and output. The wavelet transform (WT), in general, produces floating point coefficients. Although these coefficients can be used to reconstruct an original image perfectly in theory, the use of finite precision arithmetic and quantization results in a lossy scheme. The advantages of IMWT are  Higher order of approximation  High energy compaction capability  Symmetry  Dynamic range of the coefficients will not be largely amplified  Faster calculation 2.4. Lossy Compression Technique SPIHT is an extension of the Embedded Zero Tree Algorithm (EZW) and was developed by Amir Said and William Pearlman in 1996. It has been known to give significantly impressive results in image compression as compared to other techniques. The SPIHT algorithm offers significantly improved quality over other image compression techniques such as vector quantization, JPEG and wavelets combined with quantization. It offers characteristics such as:  Good image quality with a high PSNR  Optimized for progressive image transmission  Fast coding and decoding  Can be used for lossless compression  Can be efficiently combined with error protection The SPIHT Algorithm works in two phases: First the wavelet transform of the input image is computed and then the wavelet coefficients are transmitted to the SPIHT coding engine. After the discrete wavelet transform of the image has been computed, SPIHT divides the wavelets in to spatial orientation trees. Each node in the tree corresponds to an individual pixel. Each pixel in the transformed image is coded on basis of its significance by comparing with a threshold value at each level. If the value of a pixel or any of its offspring is below the threshold, we can conclude that all of its descendants are insignificant at that level and need not be passed. After each pass, the threshold is divided by two and the algorithm proceeds further. This way information about the most significant bits of the wavelet coefficients will always precede information on lower-order significant bits, which is referred to as bit-plane ordering. www.ijera.com www.ijera.com The set partition in hierarchical trees (SPIHT) coding algorithm is best in terms of compression performance. Previously, the SPIHT was designed for lossy data compression. By combining the IMWT with the SPIHT, both the lossy and lossless compression modes are now supported. The major advantage of using SPIHT coding technique is that, it supports embedded coding along with progressive transmission, which is suitable for telemedicine. 2.5. Modified EZW and Huffman Coding In Shapiro’s EZW algorithm, a “zero tree” consists of a parent and its off springs are insignificant, then the ancestor is coded as zero trees. If the value of the coefficient is lower than the threshold and has one or more significant descendants with respect to ‘j’th level, then they are coded as “isolated zero”. The significant coefficients of the last sub-bands, which do not accept descendants and are not themselves descendants of a zero tree are also considered to be zero trees. The significance symbols of the image coefficients are then placed in the dominant list. The amplitudes of the significant coefficients are placed in the subordinate list. Their values in the transformed image are set to zero in order not to undergo the next step. Finally to the above coefficients, Huffman coding is applied. A bit corresponding to 2j-1 is emitted for all the significant values in the refinement list S in order to increase the precision of those values transmitted. The coefficients are then converted into binary by the coding technique. This process is repeated by dividing the threshold by 2. The process is reiterated until the desired quality of the reconstructed image is reached or until the number of transferable bit required is exceeded. The modified algorithm works in the following way:  Symbols were added to the significance test stage to allow a better redistribution of the entropy.  The coding of the dominant elements and the subordinate list quantization bits was optimized. If a coefficient is tested and found to be significant, its off springs are also tested. If at least one coefficient is significant, then the descendants are coded according to the doing rules of the Shapiro’s algorithm, which is the case for the coefficients. If a coefficient is tested and found to be significant, its off springs are also tested. If all the coefficients are significant, then the descendants are coded with symbols Pt, for positive coefficient and with symbol Nt. Performing the above steps for the two possibilities of coefficient values reduction in code symbol of four results for the both the cases. In Shapiro’s EZW algorithm, the dominant list D is composed of four symbols, each one coded into binary on two bits; these symbols are coded Huffman coded before transmission. Huffman coding assigns less codes for coefficients whose probabilities of occurrence is high and vice versa for coefficients 884 | P a g e

The significant size is obtained by binary regrouping of several symbols. After the compression, the compressed image is transmitted over TCP at bit-rate 587 kb/s. Then the hospital system received compressed image and was decompressed image. The performance of proposed system had evaluated based on Compression Ratio (CR), peak signal to noise ratio (PSNR), Normalized Average Error (NAE), Average Difference (AD), Maximum Difference (MD), Mean square error (MSE),Root Mean Square error(RMSE),Signal to Noise Ratio (SNR),Normalized cross correlation (NCC), Structural Content (SC),Encoding and Decoding time. Surely this will give better result compared with other compression techniques within limited computational complexity. III. Result and Discussion Teleophthalmology targets to provide a virtual platform for eye consultation. Hence, it should select suitable network bandwidth for balancing the cost and QoS, and tolerate the network bandwidth fluctuation. ROI-based compression computational complexity is also one of the important issues to be considered, while addressing real time applications. But the method of separate transforms to the two regions proves better results compared to the ordinary way of applying only single transforms to the whole image. The proposed method evaluated in MATLAB platform.

Conclusion This paper takes a detailed analysis of image compression. With the growing demand for better ROI-based Procedures for progressive transmission of digital images: comparison bandwidth utilization, efficient image data compression techniques have emerged as an important factor for image data transmission and storage. Different attributes of compression such as compression ratio, peak signal to noise ratio, bits per pixel can be calculated. Image compression technique is used to reduce the number of bits required in representing image, which helps to reduce the storage space and transmission cost. The proposed algorithm can compare the image quality using different image attributes. We can conclude that the system will provide the better visibility after the image restoration. The implementation of ROI based compression is providing better results as compared with lossless algorithms, along with preservation of diagnostically important information. Such image compression system recommended for telemedicine. Hence, it offers great potential of cutting down the overall treatment costs, as it is able to maximize the specialist productivity by having a specialist handling many cases without having to commute to be physically with the patients. Our real trials demonstrate that the telemedicine via teleophthalmology is promising. V.
