Abstract

The medical images are commonly available on cloud by researchers and doctors for better diagnosis and find new cures to diseases. However, due to blurriness and noises presented in such images, the intended purpose is not served. This paper presents stationary wavelet transform based two techniques i.e. Daubechies (DB) and HAAR wavelets for Gaussian noise removal from medical images. The computer simulations are carried out on a set of 20 medical images. The remarkable rise in entropy value of every image is noticed. The comparative analysis of MATLAB results suggest that DB is better than HAAR wavelet transform based method to improve the medical images and make them much more useful.
