This paper provides the derivation of speckle reducing anisotropic diffusion (SRAD), a diffusion method tailored to ultrasonic and radar imaging applications. SRAD is the edge-sens...
For tissue characterization in medical ultrasound imagery or terrain characterization in synthetic aperture radar imagery, it is necessary to preprocess imagery to reduce granular...
Cardiac parameters such as end-systolic volume, ejection fraction and myocardial mass are essential to the diagnosis and treatment of cardiovascular disease (CVD). Traditionally, ...

Diffusion tensor imaging (DTI) measures, such as fractional anisotropy (FA), and trace are very sensitive to noise contained in the acquired diffusion weighted images. Typical iso...
