GPU-Based Block-Wise Nonlocal Means Denoising for 3D Ultrasound Images
Speckle suppression plays an important role in improving ultrasound (US) image quality. While lots of algorithms have been proposed for 2D US image denoising with remarkable filtering quality, there is relatively less work done on 3D ultrasound speckle suppression, where the whole volume data rather...
