Abstract

This paper presents a simple but efficient filtering method suited to fit 3D ultrasonic images features. It is based upon the order statistics filtering principle. The main idea is to use only a combination of 2D filters to process a 3D image, thus sparing a large amount of processing time. This method is possible because of some properties of the ultrasonic images.
