Abstract
MARTIN, ADRIAN; GARAMENDI, JUAN F. and SCHIAVI, EMANUELE. MR-DTI RICIAN DENOISING. Dyna rev.fac.nac.minas [online]. 2013, vol.80, n.182, pp.25-30. ISSN 0012-7353.
In this work we tackle the problem of Magnetic Resonance Images (MRI) Rician denoising to enhance Diffusion Tensor Image (DTI) reconstruction. In a variational framework based on the Total Variation operator, the model of the Rician noise leads to the resolution of a highly nonlinear equation associated to the energy minimization problem. An iterative algorithm is proposed and validated on synthetic images. Finally the application to real Diffusion Weighted Images (DWI) is considered.
