Whole-Body Bone Scan Image Enhancement Algorithms

Whole-body bone scan; Gamma Camera; Image enhancement; Nuclear medicine.

The main problem in nuclear medicine imaging system is the resulting images degraded with large amounts of noise. In this work we want use four different enhancement methods to enhance whole-body bone scan image so as to reduce the noise from the image and improve the resolution to achieve a better image quality and maintain quality for accurate diagnosis. Different enhancement methods and two pair bone scan images used to perform this work. The enhanced algorithms are successfully demonstrated on real bone scan images.
