Abstract. This article proposes the application of the technique of combining the modernized method of renormalization with limitation with subsequent bilateral filtering to improve the quality of medical ultrasound images. Processing according to this algorithm increases the overall contrast of the image, smoothes out speckle noise and makes it possible to cope well with determining the localization of significant objects. The presented results indicate a significant improvement in the quality of ultrasound images, which can serve as an auxiliary tool for medical workers when clarifying the diagnosis.
Key words: ultrasound research, image processing, method of renormalization with limitation, bilateral filtering.
