A multi-scale (MS) decomposition method for contrast enhancement of Micro Dose (MD) X-ray images is presented in this paper. First, we get a denoised version of the input exploiting a non-local means filter with adaptable parameters setting that we defined in a former approach. Then, the MS representations of the input and of its de-noised version are combined to obtain an optimal image in terms of preservation of details and noise attenuation. The efficiency of the algorithm is demonstrated by quantitative and qualitative assessments on both phantoms and clinical MD images. |
