Abstract

X-ray images, such as mammograms, often contain high-intensity radiopaque artifacts in the form of horizontal or vertical stripes, often the result of the digitization process. These artifacts can contribute to difficulties in segmentation and enhancement algorithms. This paper presents an algorithm to suppress stripe artifacts based on weighted median filtering and shows how it affects post-processing segmentation. © Springer-Verlag Berlin Heidelberg 2005.
