AbstractSpeckle'refers to the granular patterns that occur in ultrasound images due to wave interference. Speckle removal can greatly improve the visibility of the underlying structures …
It is well known that speckle is a multiplicative noise that degrades image and video quality and the visual expert's evaluation in ultrasound imaging and video. This necessitates the …

We propose an ultrasound speckle filtering method for not only preserving various edge features but also filtering tissue-dependent complex speckle noises in ultrasound images …
Breast ultrasound (BUS) is considered the most important adjunct method to mammography for diagnosing cancer. However, this image modality suffers from an intrinsic artifact called …

Breast ultrasound is an important tool used in the medical treatment and diagnosis of breast tumor. However, noise defined as speckles are generated inevitably. Although the existence …
The speckle is usually described as a multiplicative noise that significantly corrupts the quality and contrast in diagnostic ultrasound imaging. Therefore, the development of an …
