New CT Image Denoising Framework Combines Decomposition and Curvelet Thresholding

Researchers have developed a novel hybrid denoising framework for CT images that combines multiple decomposition techniques like EMD, VMD, MEMD, and BEMD with curvelet transform thresholding. This method processes each decomposition mode using both soft and hard thresholding before recombining them to reconstruct the final image. Evaluations on standard CT datasets with various kernels, such as B50, B46, B41, and B36, demonstrated significant improvements in denoising effectiveness, with VMD consistently yielding the highest PSNR and SSIM scores. The study also analyzed the trade-offs between soft and hard thresholding, noting that soft thresholding preserves intricate details while hard thresholding offers superior noise reduction. AI
