Local adaptive filtering in DCT domain

2. Filtering NMR image 

     Local adaptive RDCT filtering noise suppression capability   is compared, ona real NMR image, with that of a median filter and local LLMSE  filter implemented in Matlab ( "adaptive Wiener filter ").
    Fig. 3 illustrates filtering results. From diference (between input and output) images (Delta) one can see that RDCT filtering provides images of better quality and better preserves image details. RDCT filtering is also advantageous in terms of computation time.
