Image compression using imaging tomography technique

Abstract EN

Imaging Tomography is very powerful tool as a nondestructive imaging method, it use forward and back projection technique to create an image for a slice of an object.

This technique had been simulated in this research on images as a compression method.

The result shows that imaging Tomography technique has high compression ratio for large images and it has forward relationship with the image dimensions.

The Fourier Slice Theorem filter used to retrieve the images from its 2-D projection, image quality was acceptable (5-7 dB) comparing with compression ratio that achieved, using another filter it could give better result.
