PURPOSE: For highly operator-dependent ultrasound scanning, skill assessment approaches evaluate operator competence given available data, such as acquired images and tracked probe movement. Operator skill level can be quantified by the completeness,...

PURPOSE: In obstetric ultrasound (US) scanning, the learner's ability to mentally build a three-dimensional (3D) map of the fetus from a two-dimensional (2D) US image represents a major challenge in skill acquisition. We aim to build a US plane local...
This work investigates the use of deep convolutional neural networks (CNN) to automatically perform measurements of fetal body parts, including head circumference, biparietal diameter, abdominal circumference and femur length, and to estimate gestati...
As an effective way of routine prenatal diagnosis, ultrasound (US) imaging has been widely used recently. Biometrics obtained from the fetal segmentation shed light on fetal health monitoring. However, the segmentation in US images has strict require...
Placenta localization from obstetric 2-D ultrasound (US) imaging is unattainable for many pregnant women in low-income countries because of a severe shortage of trained sonographers. To address this problem, we present a method to automatically detec...
OBJECTIVE: Advances in artificial intelligence (AI) have demonstrated potential to improve medical diagnosis. We piloted the end-to-end automation of the mid-trimester screening ultrasound scan using AI-enabled tools.
BACKGROUND: Babies born early and/or small for gestational age in Low and Middle-income countries (LMICs) contribute substantially to global neonatal and infant mortality. Tracking this metric is critical at a population level for informed policy, ad...

BACKGROUND: Optimal prenatal care relies on accurate gestational age dating. After the first trimester, the accuracy of current gestational age estimation methods diminishes with increasing gestational age. Considering that, in many countries, access...
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).
To identify newborns at risk of developing ASD and to detect ASD biomarkers early after birth, we compared retrospectively ultrasound and biological measurements of babies diagnosed later with ASD or neurotypical (NT) that are collected routinely dur...
