Medical imaging technology is becoming an important component of large number of applications such as diagnosis, research, and treatment. Medical images like X-Ray, CT, MRI, PET and SPECT have minute information about heart brain and nerves. These images need to be accurate and free from noise. Noise reduction plays an important role in medical imaging. Various methods of noise removal such as:...

Images captured in hazy weather environment often suffer from poor illumination conditions that will create a lot...

Magnetic resonance (MR) images acquired with fast measurement often display poor signal-to-noise ratio (SNR) and contrast. With the advent of high temporal resolution imaging, there is a growing need to remove these noise artifacts. The noise in magnitude MR images is signal-dependent (Rician), whereas most de-noising algorithms assume additive Gaussian (white) noise. However, the Rician distri...

Introduction: One of the major problems in the development of nuclear medicine images is the presence of noise. The noise level in nuclear medicine images is usually reduced by the analysis of imaging data in a Fourier transform environment. The main drawback of this environment belongs to low signal to noise ratio in high frequencies because removing noise frequencies may remove data and times...

In recent years most of researcher’s has done tremendous work in the field of medical image applications such as Magnetic Resonance Imaging (MRI), Ultra Sound, CT scan but still there are many research and experiments in medical imaging field and diagnosing of human health by Health Care Institutes. There is a growing interest for medical imaging denoising as a hot area of research and also ima...

We have devised a way of segmentation and progressive transmission of MRI images. Entropy maximization using Particle Swarm Algorithm (PSO) is used to get the Region of Interest (ROI). The ROI is de-noised using Multi-Wavelet Analysis. Soft Thresholding together with Stationary Wavelet is used for de-noising purpose. Varying percentages of Discrete Cosine Transform Coefficients are used for the...

he image processing is the technology through which information of image get processed . the noises are the extra pixels which get added on the image to reduce image quality. The authors proposed various techniques which works to remove noisy pixels from the image. In this paper, various image de-nosing techniques has been reviewed and discuss in terms of their outcomes. KeywordsNoise, De-noisi...

This article presents a new scheme for movie de-scratching, de-noising and de-blotching based on wave atom transform and nonparametric model. According to the analysis of the noise, scratches and blotches in the film, we establish a hybrid model for movie signal. In the proposed model, we model scratch as directional additive noise, which can be represented effectively by a new multi-scale anal...

In this study, a new algorithm is proposed—Asynchronous Averaging and Filtering (AAF) for ECG signal de-noising. R-peaks are detected with another proposed algorithm—Minimum Slot and Maximum Point selecting method (MSMP). AAF algorithm reduces random noise (major component of EMG noise) from ECG signal and provides comparatively good results for baseline wander noise cancellation. Signal to noi...
