Development and trial of a new method of image enhancement for ultrasonic medical diagnostics.

The subject of this work is the problem of separation of noise from informative texture elements taking into account special features of the ultrasonic image. A mathematical model is developed that describes statistical and spectral properties of different elements of image texture. A noise-suppression procedure based on the developed mathematical model is implemented. The method passed clinical trials that proved its efficiency. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
