| Abstract(in English) | In this paper, we present a method of the edge enhancement and the speckle reduction in ultrasound images using anisotropic diffusion. Ultrasound image diagnosis is used widely, however the ultrasound images are blurred and have much speckle noise. In the diagnosis, some important features such as tissue boundary and small lesion are not detected. In order to preserve the image quality, several methods for speckle suppression and boundary enhancement have been proposed. Now, we evaluate quantitatively the method using numerical phantom simulating ultrasound B-mode images, apply to real ultrasound images, and confirm the effect. |
