This paper presents a new texture based anisotropic diffusion method for real ultrasound image despeckling. Texture information is obtained by a real ultrasound image model. Unlike traditional anisotropic diffusion methods usually taking image gradient as a diffusion index, we take the image texture as a new diffusion index. The results comparing our new method with others on both simulated image and real ultrasound images are reported, and our method shows the superiority in keeping important features of real ultrasound images.
