Brain extraction is a fundamental prerequisite step in neuroimage analysis for fetus. Due to surrounding maternal tissues and unpredictable movement, brain extraction from fetal Magnetic Resonance (MR) images is a challenging task. In this paper, we ...
The quality control of fetal sonographic (FS) images is essential for the correct biometric measurements and fetal anomaly diagnosis. However, quality control requires professional sonographers to perform and is often labor-intensive. To solve this p...
OBJECTIVES: The development of the artificial intelligence (AI) classifier to recognize fetal facial expressions that are considered as being related to the brain development of fetuses as a retrospective, non-interventional pilot study.
Deep neural networks exhibit limited generalizability across images with different entangled domain features and categorical features. Learning generalizable features that can form universal categorical decision boundaries across domains is an intere...

BACKGROUND: Due to random motion of fetuses and maternal respirations, image quality of fetal brain MRIs varies considerably. To address this issue, visual inspection of the images is performed during acquisition phase and after 3D-reconstruction, an...
OBJECTIVES: To evaluate a deep learning model for predicting gestational age from fetal brain MRI acquired after the first trimester in comparison to biparietal diameter (BPD).

PURPOSE OF REVIEW: Fetal central nervous system malformations are among the most common congenital anomalies. Whereas simple axial views are sufficient for basic fetal brain examination, other important views are essential for a more detailed examina...
Fetal cortical plate segmentation is essential in quantitative analysis of fetal brain maturation and cortical folding. Manual segmentation of the cortical plate, or manual refinement of automatic segmentations is tedious and time-consuming. Automati...
