Congenital heart defect (CHD) refers to the overall structural abnormality of the heart or large blood vessels in the chest cavity. It is the most common type of fetal congenital defects. Prenatal diagnosis of congenital heart disease can improve the...
Accurate estimation of gestational age (GA) is vital for identifying fetal abnormalities. Conventionally, GA is estimated by measuring the morphology of the cranium, abdomen, and femur manually and inputting them into the classic Hadlock formula to a...
In this work, we present a novel gaze-assisted natural language processing (NLP)-based video captioning model to describe routine second-trimester fetal ultrasound scan videos in a vocabulary of spoken sonography. The primary novelty of our multi-mod...
OBJECTIVE: To develop and internally validate a deep-learning algorithm from fetal ultrasound images for the diagnosis of cystic hygromas in the first trimester.
Cerebellum measures taken from routinely obtained ultrasound (US) images have been frequently employed to determine gestational age and identify developing central nervous system's anatomical abnormalities. Standardized cerebellar assessments from la...

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...
