Yes, you can either use the 'Tools > Clean > Noise filter' method (see http://www.cloudcompare.org/doc/wiki/in ... ise_filter) or the equivalent SOR filter from qPCL (a portage of the Statistical Outliers Removal filter of the P.C.L. library). Both methods are equivalent but the first one let you set more parameters.

There are also other tools that can be useful (for instance the 'Tools > Segmentation > Label Connected Components' tool that lets you remove isolated points very easily).
