Selection of a Stopping Criterion for Anisotropic Diffusion Filtering in Ultrasound Images

Ultrasound imaging is a safe and cost-effective diagnostic tool, but the quality of the images is affected by speckle noise and artifacts. Anisotropic diffusion filters can be used to reduce noise and preserve the edges in the image. However, this technique is very sensitive to the number of iterati...
