Filtering methods in speckle noise reduction in biomedical images

Abstract

A review of the methods of filtering ultrasound images on the example of hip dysplasia images is presented, their advantages and disadvantages are shown. Demonstrated ways of computer diagnostics of Hip dysplasia development. The method of filtration of the speckle noise of ultrasonic images of the hip dysplasia was proposed. The proposed method focuses on Gaussian blur effects. The idea of the method is that performs a logical AND operation between the original input image and two another images processed Gaussian filtering. The algorithm was tested on the tested images, as well as on real ultrasound images of hip dysplasia.
