Abstract
A method of correcting distortion of an image, including: analyzing, by a processor, an image segment of the image to identify a speckle artifact, the image segment being obtained from a scanning imaging device; determining, by the processor, an aspect ratio of a shape of the speckle artifact; determining, by the processor, a correction factor for the shape of the speckle artifact based on the aspect ratio; and adjusting, by the processor, a dimension of the image segment based on the correction factor.
