In nowadays there is a large increase in the digital medical images and different medical imaging equipments are available for diagnoses, medical professionals are increasingly relying on computer aided techniques for both indexing these images and retrieving similar images from large repositories. To develop systems which are computationally less intensive without compromising on the accuracy from the high dimensional feature space is always challenging. In this paper an investigation is made on the retrieval of compressed medical images. Images are compressed using the visually lossless compression technique. Shape and texture features are extracted and best features are selected using the fisher technique and mRMR. Using these selected features RNN with BPTT was utilized for classification of the compressed images.
