Non-local mean denoising using multiple PET reconstructions

ConclusionThe MR-NLM approach exhibited promising performance in terms of noise suppression and signal preservation for PET images, thus translating into higher SNR compared to the conventional NLM approach. Despite the promising performance of the MR-NLM approach, the additional computational burden owing to the requirement of multiple PET reconstruction still needs to be addressed.
