Total Variation-Based Noise Reduction Image Processing Algorithm for Confocal Laser Scanning Microscopy Applied to Activity Assessment of Early Carious Lesions

The confocal laser scanning microscopy (CLSM) system has been widely used to analyze early carious lesions with fluorescent ligands in dental imaging. This system can be used to examine the physiological condition of cellular colonization in the tooth structure. However, the undesirable noise in CLS...
