Morphology in Ultrasound Imaging
Authors:
A. R. Anil, R. Rajesh
Abstract:
Mathematical morphology is a new mathematical concept
based on set theory. Morphological operations are mainly
used in gray scale and bi-level images to process and
analysis images. Noise removal in Medical images is very
important for analysis and diagnosis. In this paper we
describe the different mathematical morphological
methods that are used to reduce speckle noise in medical
Ultrasound imaging and explain the major operations like
Erosion, Dilation, Opening and Closing.
