The aim of this paper is to propose a new quality index which measures the distance between a reference (source) image and its corrupted copy in the way as Human Visual System (HVS) does. The new quality index called the Mean Weighted Quality Index (MW) is defined with the help of the well known easy calculated indexes. The experiments performed on a number of medical images confirmed usefulness of the new index.
