We can transform an image from one form to another form by using this image compression method. Compression will minimize the size of image. Hospital management stores the medical images, which are helpful in studying the case history of the patient. But when storing these images they take large disk space in the hard disk. By using this Medical image compression technology we can reduce the disc space used by medical images ,without loss of any information.

Discrete Wavelet Transform (DWT) transformation is used to decompose the image and later that image is compressed by applying Set Partitioning In Hierarchical Trees (SPIHT) algorithm. The compressed image is stored as a file with extension of .cmp. The vector encoding technique is applied to decompress the compressed image file in to Inverse Discrete Wavelet Transform (I-DWT) form and saves it as BITMAP image.
