Introduction: An efficient method of tomographic imaging in nuclear medicine is positron emission tomography (PET). Compared to SPECT, PET has the advantages of higher levels of sensitivity, spatial resolution and more accurate quantification. However, high noise levels in the image limit its diagnostic utility. Noise removal in nuclear medicine is traditionally based on Fourier decomposition o...

The noise in reconstructed slices of X-ray Computed Tomography (CT) is of unknown distribution, non-stationary, oriented and difficult to distinguish from main structural information. This requires the development of special post-processing methods based on the local statistical evaluation of the noise component. This paper presents an adaptive method of reducing noise in CT images employing th...

the presence of noise in geophysical measurements has undesirable effects on the seismic data. one of the important problems in seismic data processing is attenuation of the noise to the desired form and keeping the original signal. contamination of seismic data with noise prevents obtaining a proper image of geological structures and seismic data interpretation. in some of the receivers the no...
