Abstract: | Rayleigh distribution governs noise in 'no signal' regions of magnetic resonance magnitude images. Large areas of background noise in MRI images will seriously affect their effective utilisation. A new wavelet-based algorithm is presented that can work efficiently either as a standalone procedure or couple with existing denoising algorithms to significantly improve their effectiveness. |
