Abstract
Methods and systems are provided for de-noising medical images using deep neural networks. In one embodiment, a method comprises receiving a medical image acquired by an imaging system, wherein the medical image comprises colored noise; mapping the medical image to a de-noised medical image using a trained convolutional neural network (CNN); and displaying the de-noised medical image via a display device. The deep neural network may thereby reduce colored noise in the acquired noisy medical image, increasing a clarity and diagnostic quality of the image.
