Claim 14:
15. A non-transitory computer-readable medium storing processor-executable process steps which when executed by a processing unit of a computing system, cause the computing system to:
determine an entropy value associated with each of a plurality of voxels of a three-dimensional image;
determine, for each of the plurality of voxels, a respective filter based on the entropy value associated with the voxel, wherein a first filter determined for a first voxel associated with a first entropy value is different from a second filter determined for a second voxel associated with a second entropy value different from the first entropy value; and
apply, for each of the plurality of voxels, the respective filter to a value of the voxel to generate a replacement value for the voxel; and
generate a filtered three-dimensional image based on the generated replacement value of each of the plurality of voxels.
