Prenatal Diagnostics Using Deep Learning: A Dual Approach to Plane Localization and Cerebellum Segmentation in Ultrasound Images.

Journal of clinical ultrasound : JCU
OBJECTIVE: The fetal ultrasound examination is the significant task of mid-term pregnancy inspection and the accurate localization as well as the segmentation of the cerebellum is crucial for clinical diagnosis. This research focuses on developing de...

A survey of obstetric ultrasound uses and priorities for artificial intelligence-assisted obstetric ultrasound in low- and middle-income countries.

Scientific reports
Obstetric ultrasound (OBUS) is recommended as part of antenatal care for pregnant individuals worldwide. To better understand current uses of OBUS in low- and middle-income countries and perceptions regarding potential use of artificial intelligence ...

Artificial Intelligence in Fetal Growth Restriction Management: A Narrative Review.

Journal of clinical ultrasound : JCU
This narrative review examines the integration of Artificial Intelligence (AI) in prenatal care, particularly in managing pregnancies complicated by Fetal Growth Restriction (FGR). AI provides a transformative approach to diagnosing and monitoring FG...

Deep learning image registration for cardiac motion estimation in adult and fetal echocardiography via a focus on anatomic plausibility and texture quality of warped image.

Computers in biology and medicine
Temporal echocardiography image registration is important for cardiac motion estimation, myocardial strain assessments, and stroke volume quantifications. Deep learning image registration (DLIR) is a promising way to achieve consistent and accurate r...

Automatic Measurement of Frontomaxillary Facial Angle in Fetal Ultrasound Images Using Deep Learning.

Sensors (Basel, Switzerland)
Accurate measurement of frontomaxillary facial (FMF) angles in prenatal ultrasound (US) scans plays a pivotal role in the screening of trisomy 21. Nevertheless, this intricate procedure heavily relies on the proficiency of the ultrasonographer and te...

Enhancing Small-for-Gestational-Age Prediction: Multi-Country Validation of Nuchal Thickness, Estimated Fetal Weight, and Machine Learning Models.

Prenatal diagnosis
OBJECTIVE: The first objective is to develop a nuchal thickness reference chart. The second objective is to compare rule-based algorithms and machine learning models in predicting small-for-gestational-age infants.

A comprehensive scoping review on machine learning-based fetal echocardiography analysis.

Computers in biology and medicine
Fetal echocardiography (ultrasound of the fetal heart) plays a vital role in identifying heart defects, allowing clinicians to establish prenatal and postnatal management plans. Machine learning-based methods are emerging to support the automation of...

Clinical validation of explainable AI for fetal growth scans through multi-level, cross-institutional prospective end-user evaluation.

Scientific reports
We aimed to develop and evaluate Explainable Artificial Intelligence (XAI) for fetal ultrasound using actionable concepts as feedback to end-users, using a prospective cross-center, multi-level approach. We developed, implemented, and tested a deep-l...

Longitudinal twin growth discordance patterns and adverse perinatal outcomes.

American journal of obstetrics and gynecology
BACKGROUND: Growth discordance in twin pregnancies is associated with increased perinatal morbidity and mortality, yet the patterns of discordance progression and the utility of Doppler assessments remain underinvestigated.

CLP-Net: an advanced artificial intelligence technique for localizing standard planes of cleft lip and palate by three-dimensional ultrasound in the first trimester.

BMC pregnancy and childbirth
BACKGROUND: Early diagnosis of cleft lip and palate (CLP) requires a multiplane examination, demanding high technical proficiency from radiologists. Therefore, this study aims to develop and validate the first artificial intelligence (AI)-based model...
