Noise reduction in 3D images using morphological amoebas

Abstract

This article presents the use of morphological amoebas for the enhancement of 3D medical images. Morphological amoebas are kernels adapting their shape in such a way that they do not cross the contours of the image. They can be used in morphological operations in quite a similar way as classical kernel and are well-fitted for noise-reduction in 3D medical images.
