چکیده
This paper presents a fast and easy method to implement denoising of ultrasound images. One of the very important tasks in the field of image processing is the removal of noise from an image. Noise may arise in the process of image acquisition, its transmission and also in the reproduction of an image. There are several approaches regarding the task of denoising, depending on the nature of the noise. Some image restoration techniques are best formulated in the spatial domain, and in this paper propose improved algorithm and compare their effectiveness. On different test examples our method achieved very good results so it can be considered a promising tool for such corrections. Key-words: Image processing, Denoising algorithms, Medical images, Digital filters, Ultrasound images, Signal Processing

Improved Adaptive Median Filter Algorithm for Removing Impulse Noise from Grayscale Images
Digital image is often degraded by many kinds of noise during the process of acquisition and transmission. To make subsequent processing more convenient, it is necessary to decrease the effect of noise. There are many kinds of noises in image, which mainly include salt and pepper noise and Gaussian noise. This paper focuses on median filters to remove the salt and pepper noise. After summarizin...

متن کاملAn Adaptive Hierarchical Method Based on Wavelet and Adaptive Filtering for MRI Denoising
MRI is one of the most powerful techniques to study the internal structure of the body. MRI image quality is affected by various noises. Noises in MRI are usually thermal and mainly due to the motion of charged particles in the coil. Noise in MRI images also cause a limitation in the study of visual images as well as computer analysis of the images. In this paper, first, it is proved that proba...
متن کاملMedical Ultrasound Image Speckle Noise Reduction by Adaptive Median Filter
Medical ultrasound is a powerful nonivasive diagnostics tool. Due to physical factors of the diagnostics system, ultrasound generated images usually contain some noise where specle noise is often a prominent component. In this paper we propose an adaptive median filter with adaptive window size for removing speckle noise from ultrasound medical images, including the case when spots are larger t...
متن کاملBiomedical Image Denoising Based on Hybrid Optimization Algorithm and Sequential Filters
Background: Nowadays, image de-noising plays a very important role in medical analysis applications and pre-processing step. Many filters were designed for image processing, assuming a specific noise distribution, so the images which are acquired by different medical imaging modalities must be out of the noise. Objectives: This study has focused on the sequence filters which are selected ...
