Abstract
Ultrasound imaging is one of the popular,cheapest, and non-invasive medical scans. During the time of image acquisition, there is distortion of the quality of image in the form of speckle noise. Nowadays, many researches have made various experiments to improve the quality of medical image. In this paper, comparing fuzzy filter with median filter, as fuzzy filter works on fuzzy rules to detect different gradient and then filtering the noisy, homogenous and edge regions whereas median filter works on the pixel value in a non-linear fashion. The performance comparison of multi-scale schemes shows that fuzzy filter excels over the median filter.
