Embodiments of the present invention may provide a method of compressing an ultrasound image. The method of compressing ultrasound images by coding pixel values of the ultrasound images with a Huffman table, comprises: a) receiving consecutive ultrasound images each having a plurality of pixels; b) determining characteristics of the pixels of the ultrasound images; c) updating the Huffman table based on the characteristics of the pixels of first to (n-1)<SUP>th </SUP>ultrasound images, wherein n is an integer greater than 1; and d) coding the pixels of an n<SUP>th </SUP>ultrasound image with the updated Huffman table.
