A hybrid image compression method is proposed by which the Nuclei-Cytoplasm of the image is completely restorable and the background part of the image is restorable with insignificant loss. In Hybrid Compression of Cervical Images by Segmenting Nuclei-Cytoplasm, the image is subjected to binary segmentation to detect Background and Nuclei-Cytoplasm. The image is compressed by standard lossy compression method. The difference between the lossy image and the original image is computed as residue. The residue at the Nuclei-Cytoplasm area is compressed by standard lossless compression method by which the Nuclei-Cytoplasm area is completely restorable. This method gives a low bit rate than the lossless compression methods.
