A common approach for enabling remote radiologists to view medical images is to provide them with secure access to a cloud instance using a web-based application. Such solutions must transcode input images or videos to low latency, lossless bit streams and make them available to remote users. The heart of the solution is the highly efficient, low-latency, and hardware-agnostic compression scheme. This poster surveys potential codecs for the low-latency, lossless compression of 16-bit RAW monochrome medical images and compares the compression ratio and encode time for each. Based on research and performance testing, the paper/poster recommends optimized High Throughput JPEG 2000 (HTJ2K) for this purpose.
