Complex Wavelet

Wavelet based denoising is an effective way to improve the quality of images. Various methods have been proposed for denoising using real-valued wavelet transform. Complex valued wavelets exist but are rarely used. The complex wavelet transform provides phase information and it is shift invariant in nature. In medical image denoising, both removal of phase incoherency as well as maintaining the phase coherency are needed. This paper is an attempt to explore and apply the complex Daubechies wavelet transform for medical image denoising. We have proposed a method to compute a complex threshold, which does not depend on any assumed model of noise. In this sense this is a "universal" method. The proposed complex-domain shrinkage function depends on mean, variance and median of wavelet coefficients. To test the effectiveness of the proposed method, we have computed the input and output SNR and PSNR of various types of medical images. The method gives an improvement for Gaussian additive, Speckle and Salt-&-Pepper noise as well as for the mixture of these noise types for a range of noisy images with 15 db to 30 db noise levels and outperforms other real-valued wavelet transform based methods. The application of the proposed method to Ultrasound, X-ray and MRI images is demonstrated in the experiments.

Nonlocal Regularization

Medical image information may be polluted by noise in the process of generation and transmission, which will seriously hinder the follow-up image processing and medical diagnosis. In medical images, there is a typical mixed noise composed of additive white Gaussian noise (AWGN) and impulse noise. In the conventional denoising methods, impulse noise is first removed, followed by the elimination of white Gaussian noise (WGN). However, it is difficult to separate the two kinds of noises completely in practical application. The existing denoising algorithm of weight coding based on sparse nonlocal regularization, which can simultaneously remove AWGN and impulse noise, is plagued by the problems of incomplete noise removal and serious loss of details. The denoising algorithm based on sparse representation and low rank constraint can preserve image details better. Thus, a medical image denoising algorithm based on sparse nonlocal regularization weighted coding and low rank constraint is proposed. The denoising effect of the proposed method and the original algorithm on computed tomography (CT) image and magnetic resonance (MR) image are compared. It is revealed that, under different σ and ρ values, the PSNR and FSIM values of CT and MRI images are evidently superior to those of traditional algorithms, suggesting that the algorithm proposed in this work has better denoising effects on medical images than traditional denoising algorithms.
