This paper describes an efficient and adaptive method of threshold estimation for removing Speckle noise from Synthetic Aperture Radar (SAR) images, based on Undecimated Double Density Wavelet Transform (UDDWT). Here the performance of image denoising algorithm is well improved by fixing different optimum threshold values for each wavelet coefficient. The choice of the estimation of the threshold value is carried out by analyzing the statistical parameters of the wavelet subband coefficients like Arithmetic Mean, Geometric Mean and Standard Deviation. Here the image is first decomposed into many subbands using UDDWT. Then based upon the statistical parameters of the wavelet coefficients of subbands, threshold values are found out for each wavelet coefficients. This threshold value is used in Soft Thresholding Technique to remove the noisy wavelet coefficients. Then the inverse transform is applied to get the denoised image. Evaluation parameters like peak signal to noise ratio, standard deviation to mean ratio and Edge Preservation Factor have been used for evaluating the performance of the proposed technique quantitatively. Experimental results on several benchmark images by using the proposed method show that, the proposed method yields significantly superior image quality. Some comparisons with the best available results will be given in order to illustrate the effectiveness of the proposed algorithm. 相似文献

Speckle appears in all conventional medical B-mode ultrasonic images and can be an undesirable property since it may mask small but diagnostically significant features. In this paper, an adaptive filtering algorithm is proposed for speckle reduction. It selects a filtering region size using an appropriately estimated homogeneity value for region growth. Homogeneous regions are processed with an arithmetic mean filter. Edge pixels are filtered using a nonlinear median filter. The performance of the proposed technique is compared to two other methods––the adaptive weighted median filter and the homogeneous region growing mean filter. Results of processed images show that the method proposed reduces speckle noise and preserves edge details effectively. 相似文献

医学超声图像中固有的斑点噪声严重降低了图像的可解译程度,影响了后续的图像分析和诊断。提出了一种基于冗余小波变换的超声图像去斑算法,首先对含斑图像进行对数变换,将乘性噪声变成加性噪声;再对转换后图像做冗余小波分解;在小波系数服从广义高斯分布的前提下,计算每个小波高频子带的贝叶斯萎缩阈值,利用软阈值方法修正小波系数。实验结果表明,该算法去斑性能优于传统的空间域滤波和正交小波阈值去噪方法。 相似文献

This article investigates and compiles some of the techniques mostly used in the smoothing or suppression of speckle noise in ultrasound images. With this information, a comparison of all the methods studied is done based on an experiment, using quality metrics to test their performance and show the benefits each one can contribute. To test the methods, a synthetic, noise-free image of a kidney is created and later simulations using Field II program to corrupt it are performed. This way, the smoothing techniques can be compared using numeric metrics, taking the noise-free image as a reference. Since real ultrasound images are already noise corrupted images and real noise-free images do not exist, conventional metrics cannot be used to indicate the quality obtained with filtering. Nevertheless, we propose the use of the tendencies observed in our study in real images. 相似文献

Speckle is the dominant source of noise in ultrasound imaging and is a kind of multiplicative noise. It is difficult to design a filter to remove speckle effectively. In this paper, a novel fuzzy subpixel fractional partial difference (FSFPD) for ultrasound speckle reduction is proposed. Euler-Lagrange equation acts as an increasing function of the fractional derivative's absolute value of the image intensity function. The fractional order partial difference is computed in the frequency and fuzzy domain with subpixel precision. We test the proposed method on both synthetic and real breast ultrasound (BUS) images. The comparisons of the experimental results show that the proposed method can preserve edges and structural details of ultrasound images well while removing speckle noise. In addition, the filtered images are assessed and evaluated by radiologists using double blind method. The results demonstrate that the discrimination rate of breast cancers has been highly improved after employing the proposed method. 相似文献

In this paper, a modified linear-minimum-mean-square-error (LMMSE)-based estimator is presented to reduce speckle noise in ultrasound (US) medical images. In order to significantly improve the performance of the LMMSE estimator, we consider the data redundancy feature which naturally exists in the US images. Since the classical LMMSE method, due to the use of local statistics, cannot perform well in areas where the intensity variation is high, we exploit the similarity between pixels to resolve this problem. In this regards, by using characteristics of the second order local statistics and Pearson distance, an optimum set of similar pixels is selected to be used in the proposed LMMSE-based estimator. Therefore, a good balance between maintaining small details and reducing speckle noise in different regions of US images can be achieved. Quantitative and qualitative results on synthetic and real US data demonstrate that the proposed method yields competitive results in despeckling process compared to the state-of-the-art methods. 相似文献

Speckle can be described as random multiplicative noise. It hampers the perception and extraction of fine details in the image.
Speckle reduction techniques are applied to ultrasound images in order to reduce the noise level and improve the visual quality
for better diagnoses. It is also used as preliminary treatment before segmentation and classification. Several methods have
been proposed for speckle reduction in ultrasound images. Multiscale contrast enhancement has proven to be very efficient
for x-ray images. A recent study by Dippel et al. doing a comparison, contrast enhancement of radiographs (x-ray and mammography),
between the Laplacian pyramid and the wavelet one proves that the Laplacian pyramid method gives a better result than the
wavelet one; the filtering aspect was not taken into account. In ultrasound images a strong contrast variation exists which
is different from x-ray and mammography. In this paper a wavelet pyramid with simultaneous speckle reduction and contrast
enhancement was applied for the first time on ultrasound images with the area of interest and compared to a Laplacian enhancement
pyramid. The optimum choice of wavelet bases for ultrasound images is investigated in this study. In order to realize a fair
comparison, the same nonlinear modification in both multiscale schemes is used. The comparison proves that the wavelet pyramid
gives a much better result than the Laplacian one for simultaneous speckle reduction and contrast enhancement of ultrasound
images.

IWT(integer wavelet transform)是一种基于提升格式整数小波变换的图像压缩算法.IWT比传统的浮点小波变换效率要高.在硬件实现时,整数运算比浮点运算便宜,基于提升格式的整数分解时所需的存储空间只是传统变换的一半.基于此考虑有损压缩,图像先作基于提升格式的整数分解,然后结合改进的EZW和自适应量程编码.在编码性能不受影响的情况下,此算法比Shaprio的EZW编码要快1.5倍. 相似文献
