MATLAB Techniques for Enhancement of Liver DICOM Images

Abstract

DICOM has become a standard for medical imaging. Its purpose is to standardize digital medical imaging and data for easy access and sharing. There are many commercial viewers that support DICOM image format and can read metadata, but image displaying is not always optimal. One of the most common degradations in medical images is their poor contrast quality and noise. The DICOM image consists of speckle noise. While the image is enhanced, the different types of noises present in the image are also enhanced [5]. During our study we find there is problem in correct displaying for DICOM images in MATLAB. And in this paper we develop new method for correct displaying and de-noising of DICOM images concentrating on liver images.
