This paper introduces an universal and structure-preserving regularization term, called quantile sparse image (QuaSI) prior. The prior is suitable for denoising images from various medical imaging modalities. We demonstrate its…

Optical Coherence Tomography (OCT) image denoising is a fundamental problem as OCT images suffer from multiplicative speckle noise, resulting in poor visibility of retinal layers. The traditional denoising methods consider specific…
