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...

TKR-FSOD: Fetal Anatomical Structure Few-Shot Detection Utilizing Topological Knowledge Reasoning.

IEEE journal of biomedical and health informatics
Fetal multi-anatomical structure detection in ultrasound (US) images can clearly present the relationship and influence between anatomical structures, providing more comprehensive information about fetal organ structures and assisting sonographers in...

Latent representation learning for classification of the Doppler ultrasound images.

Computers in biology and medicine
The classification of Doppler ultrasound images plays an important role in the diagnosis of pregnancy. However, it is a challenging problem that suffers from a variable length of these images with a dimension gap between them. In this study, we propo...

Predicting preterm birth using electronic medical records from multiple prenatal visits.

BMC pregnancy and childbirth
This study aimed to predict preterm birth in nulliparous women using machine learning and easily accessible variables from prenatal visits. Elastic net regularized logistic regression models were developed and evaluated using 5-fold cross-validation ...

Cost-effectiveness analysis of AI-based image quality control for perinatal ultrasound screening.

BMC medical education
PURPOSE: This study aimed to compare the cost-effectiveness of AI-based approaches with manual approaches in ultrasound image quality control (QC).
