Abstract
Medical Imaging is an essential practice in radiology to create high-standard images of the human brain. In medical imaging, denoising techniques are essential during image processing for a meaningful view of the anatomical structure of the images. In order to overcome the denoising issues, various filtering techniques and smoothening algorithms have come forth to get an accurate image for better diagnosis while preserving the original image quality. This work utilizes three computational methods for filtering noise that could distort the factual information in MRI images. The input used as the data throughout this study are MR images in grayscale contaminated with Salt and pepper noise, the most common noise in MRI images. To de-noise, a comparative analysis of three specific filters, namely the Non-Local Means filter, Median filter, and Adaptive Median filter, is conducted to do a study that gives the best results among them at different noise densities. Peak Signal-To-Noise Ratio (PSNR) and Structural Similarity Index (SSIM) are utilized as the main components to examine the behavior of the suggested filters in this study. The results show that at every value of noise density, i.e., 0.1, 0.3, 0.6, the adaptive median filter gives the highest average PSNR of 42.04, 34.36, and 28.10 and average SSIM of 0.97, 0.95, and 0.91, respectively. Hence, it indicates that the adaptive median filter outperforms the other two filters regarding PSNR and SSIM.
