Speckle noise of ultrasound images is of multiplicative nature which degrades the image quality in terms of resolution and contrast. While there exist a number of algorithms for reduction of multiplicative Rayleigh distributed random speckle noise, the low signal-to-noise ratio (SNR) issue of the mu...
