Quantitative and Comparative Analysis of Effectivity and Robustness for Enhanced and Optimized Non-Local Mean Filter Combining Pixel and Patch Information on MR Images of Musculoskeletal System

In the area of musculoskeletal MR images analysis, the image denoising plays an important role in enhancing the spatial image area for further processing. Recent studies have shown that non-local means (NLM) methods appear to be more effective and robust when compared with conventional local statist...
