The VisuShrink is one of the important image denoising methods. It however does not provide good quality of image due to removing too many coefficients especially using soft-thresholding technique. This paper proposes a new image denoising scheme using wavelet transformation. In this paper, we modify the coefficients using soft-thresholding method to enhance the visual quality of noisy image. The experimental results show that our proposed scheme has better performance than the VisuShrink in terms of peak signal-to-noise ratio (PSNR) i.e., visual quality of the image.
