Abstract
A processing method for enhancing the image quality of an image, more particularly a digital medical grey scale image, that comprises the steps of a) decomposing an original image into multiple detail images at different resolution levels and/or orientations, b) processing the detail images to obtain processed detail images, c) computing a result image by applying a reconstruction algorithm to the processed detail images, said reconstruction algorithm being such that if it were applied to the detail images without processing, then said original image or a close approximation thereof would be obtained, the processing of the detail images comprises the steps of: d) calculating at least one conjugate detail image, and e) computing at least one value of the processed detail images as a function of said conjugate detail image and said detail images.
