Abstract: In the field of medical image analysis, denoising is one of the most important preprocessing steps before medical analysis. The design of an efficient, robust, and computationally effective edge-preserving denoising algorithm is a widely studied, and yet unsolved problem. One of the most efficient edgepreserving denoising algorithms is the bilateral filter, which is an intuitive generalization of the local M-smoother. In this paper, we propose to modify both the bilateral filter and the local M-smoother to use patches of the image instead of single voxels in the denoising process. Using patches instead of single voxels in the filtering process is a way to adapt the filter to the textures, ramps, and edges of the image, and make the filter more discriminant. The filtering performances of the patch-based algorithms are evaluated on a benchmark and a CT phantom image and compared to the bilateral filter and local M-smoother.
