Temporal and volumetric denoising via quantile sparse image prior

Abstract: This paper introduces an universal and structure-preserving regularization term, called quantile sparse image (QuaSI) prior. The prior is suitable for denoising images from various medical imaging modalities. We demonstrate its effectiveness on volumetric optical coherence tomography (OCT) and computed tomography (CT) data, which show different noise and image characteristics. OCT offers high-resolution scans of the human retina but is inherently impaired by speckle noise. CT on the other hand has a lower reso… Show more

“…Medical imaging uses many different methods such as magnetic resonance (MR) imaging [1][2][3][4][5][6][7][8], radiography [4,[9][10][11], radionuclide [8,12], optical [11,13,14], ultrasound [1,15] and medical robotics [16,17]. The typical medical imaging system consists of three components (Figure 1): data acquisition, data consolidation and data processing.…”

“…Rheological methods of increasing MR elastography resolution determine viscoelastic properties through wave inversion, which is highly ill posed and sensitive to noise [1]. In radiology using computed tomography (CT) or related morphological imaging modalities, noise affects the analysis of anatomical structures and thus impedes diagnostic applications [11]. Low dose radiation exposure for patient safety leads to noisy and low-contrast fluoroscopic sequences [11].…”
