With the advance of next-generation sequencing (NGS) technologies, non-invasive prenatal testing (NIPT) has been developed and employed in fetal aneuploidy screening on 13-/18-/21-trisomies through detecting cell-free fetal DNA (cffDNA) in maternal b...
Convolutional neural networks (CNNs) have achieved state-of-the-art performance for automatic medical image segmentation. However, they have not demonstrated sufficiently accurate and robust results for clinical use. In addition, they are limited by ...
PURPOSE: To evaluate whether a machine learning (ML) analysis employing MRI-derived texture analysis (TA) features could be useful in assessing the presence of placenta accreta spectrum (PAS) in patients with placenta previa (PP). The hypothesis is t...
MR images of fetuses allow clinicians to detect brain abnormalities in an early stage of development. The cornerstone of volumetric and morphologic analysis in fetal MRI is segmentation of the fetal brain into different tissue classes. Manual segment...

This paper presents an advanced approach for foetal brain abnormalities diagnostic by integrating significant biometric features in the identification process. In foetal anomaly diagnosis, manual evaluation of foetal behaviour in ultrasound images is...
OBJECTIVE: The aim of this study was to investigate whether intraplacental texture features from routine placental MRI can objectively and accurately predict invasive placentation.
Recent advances in fetal imaging open the door to enhanced detection of fetal disorders and computer-assisted surgical planning. However, precise segmentation of womb's tissues is challenging due to motion artifacts caused by fetal movements and mate...
In fetal cardiology, imaging (especially echocardiography) has demonstrated to help in the diagnosis and monitoring of fetuses with a compromised cardiovascular system potentially associated with several fetal conditions. Different ultrasound approac...

BACKGROUND: The process of childbirth is one of the most crucial events in the future health and development of the offspring. The vulnerability of parturients and fetuses during the delivery process led to the development of intrapartum monitoring m...
MRI-based brain age prediction has been widely used to characterize normal brain development, and deviations from the typical developmental trajectory are indications of brain abnormalities. Age prediction of the fetal brain remains unexplored, altho...
