This work proposes a novel scheme for speckle suppression on medical images acquired by ultrasound sensors. The proposed method is based on the block matching procedure by using mutual information as a similarity measure in grouping patches in a clustered area, originating a new despeckling method that integrates the statistical properties of an image and its texture for creating 3D groups in the BM3D scheme. For this purpose, the segmentation of ultrasound images is carried out considering superpixels and a variation of the local binary patterns algorithm to improve the performance of the block matching procedure. The 3D groups are modeled in terms of grouped tensors and despekled with singular value decomposition. Moreover, a variant of the bilateral filter is used as a post-processing step to recover and enhance edges’ quality. Experimental results have demonstrated that the designed framework guarantees a good despeckling performance in ultrasound images according to the objective quality criteria commonly used in literature and via visual perception. |
