Abstract

Preprocessing plays a vital role in image for reducing noise and other unwanted data. There is a need for preprocessing in many fields, including medical imaging. Many of the medical images are contaminated with noise. In this paper, works related to denoising for brain magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) and cardiac echo have been studied and implemented. Numerous types of traditional filters were compared for this purpose using mean square error (MSE), peak signal-to-noise ratio (PSNR), and structural similarity index (SSIM).
