Abstract:
The main purpose of this work is to analyze the Magnetic Resonance Imaging (MRI) methodologies used in non-invasive clinical investigation, with the aim of developing suitable denoising filtering techniques to improve the image quality and to allow the reduction of the acquisition time during an health examination. In this way the number of tests that can be performed in the same amount of time can be increased.
This work was carried out in collaboration with the staff of Martina Franca Hospital (Italy), which provided ourselves the material necessary for the development of the simulation algorithm and the sample images on which the algorithm has been tested.
