A New Method for Deblurring and Denoising of Medical Images using Complex Wavelet Transform.

Deblurring in the presence of non-Gaussian noise is a hard problem, specially in ultrasonic and CT images. In this paper, a new method of image restoration, using complex wavelet transform, has been devised and applied to deblur in the presence of high speckle noise. It has been shown that the new method outperforms the Weiner filtering and Fourier-wavelet regularized deconvolution (ForWaRD) methods for both ultrasonic and CT images.
