Adaptive anisotropic noise filtering for magnitude MR data
1999
Magnetic Resonance Imaging
Conventional noise filtering schemes applied to magnitude magnetic resonance (MR) images tacitly assume Gauss distributed noise. Magnitude MR data, however, are Rice distributed. ...
Not incorporating this knowledge leads inevitably to biased results, in particular when applying such filters in regions with low signal-to-noise ratio. ...

Magnetic Resonance in Medicine
Purpose: Diffusion tensor imaging (DTI) is known to suffer from long acquisition time in the orders of several minutes or even hours. ...
Reconstruction performance with varied signal-to-noise ratio and acceleration factors were evaluated by root-mean-square error and maps of reconstructed DTI indices. ...
