Incorporate speckle reduction algorithms?

[csheaff]

Hi, I just discovered ITKUltrasound. As you guys probably know, reducing speckle can have a significant impact on image segmentation. Have you thought about incorporating a suite of different algorithms for doing this? Might want to take a look at this MATLAB toolbox and a paper written about it:
