Linear filtering method for bone structures in computerized ultrasonic tomography images

Computerized ultrasonic tomography is an important radiological technique because of its non-ionizing properties. However, it has been the subject of several studies due to the complexity of its visualization. In this work, a Ram-Lak filter is implemented in the Radon domain to reduce the noise leve...

Sumario:Computerized ultrasonic tomography is an important radiological technique because of its non-ionizing properties. However, it has been the subject of several studies due to the complexity of its visualization. In this work, a Ram-Lak filter is implemented in the Radon domain to reduce the noise levels in the images and facilitate their observation. Results obtained were superior to those reported in the state of the art with an average improvement of 8.1512 dB.
