heal.abstract	A method for reducing speckle noise in medical ultrasonic images is presented. It is called the adaptive weighted median filter (AWMF) and is based on the weighted median, which originates from the well-known median filter through the introduction of weight coefficients. By adjusting the weight coefficients and consequently the smoothing characteristics of the filter according to the local statistics around	en
