Non-local mean denoising in diffusion tensor space
The aim of the present study was to present a novel non-local mean (NLM) method to denoise diffusion tensor imaging (DTI) data in the tensor space. Compared with the original NLM method, which uses intensity similarity to weigh the voxel, the proposed method weighs the voxel using tensor similarity measures in the diffusion tensor space. Euclidean distance with rotational invariance, and Rieman...
متن کاملNon-Local Means Variants for Denoising of Diffusion-Weighted and Diffusion Tensor MRI
Diffusion tensor imaging (DT-MRI) is very sensitive to corrupting noise due to the non linear relationship between the diffusion-weighted image intensities (DW-MRI) and the resulting diffusion tensor. Denoising is a crucial step to increase the quality of the estimated tensor field. This enhanced quality allows for a better quantification and a better image interpretation. The methods proposed ...
متن کاملMultispectral image denoising with optimized vector non-local mean filter
Nowadays, many applications rely on images of high quality to ensure good performance in conducting their tasks. However, noise goes against this objective as it is an unavoidable issue in most applications. Therefore, it is essential to develop techniques to attenuate the impact of noise, while maintaining the integrity of relevant information in images. We propose in this work to extend the a...
متن کاملNon-Local Means Denoising
We present in this paper a new denoising method called non-local means. The method is based on a simple principle: replacing the color of a pixel with an average of the colors of similar pixels. But the most similar pixels to a given pixel have no reason to be close at all. It is therefore licit to scan a vast portion of the image in search of all the pixels that really resemble the pixel one w...
متن کاملA Riemannian Framework for Denoising Diffusion Tensor Images
Diffusion Tensor Imaging (DTI) is a relatively new imaging modality that has been extensively used to study diffusion processes in the brain and has applications ranging from diagnostic to surgical planning. However, DTI imaging systems are highly sensitive to noise, leading to reconstructed images with low SNR. Thus, there is a need for image denoising algorithms specifically designed to regul...
