Abstract
Since the positron emission tomographic (PET) image shows the abnormal activity of brain by the different parts of the brain respond to different stimuli and the patient's response to noise, illumination, change in mental concentration, and other activity, the functional PET image data is much helpful for clinical diagnosis. However, the PET image is also a high noise image that the quality of the PET image and the diagnosis accuracy is affected by the noise. To improve the quality problem of PET image, a novel subband denoising technique is provided in this paper. The method is based on the subband transformation and the statistical features in each subbands of the PET image.
