Abstract

A denoising algorithm for computed tomography images is proposed. The presented method of noise reduction uses Markov Random Field (MRF) model, Gaussian filter and adaptive Prewitt Mask, what gives better results than standard approach of using only the MRF. This implementation on Compute Unified Device Architecture is made, what makes this computationally complex denoising method faster.
