Automatic Detection and Measurement of Fetal Biparietal Diameter and Femur Length—Feasibility on a Portable Ultrasound Device
An automatic method able to recognize a presented section through the biparietal plane of the fetal head and a section through the fetal femur in ultrasound images is developed. Once the correct anatomical section for measurement is identified by the machine, the placement of the measurement calipers is automatically determined by fitting an active contour model to the structure of interest. Th...
متن کاملAutomatic Estimation of Fetal Abdominal Circumference from Ultrasound Images
Ultrasound diagnosis is routinely used in obstetrics and gynecology for fetal biometry, and owing to its timeconsuming process, there has been a great demand for automatic estimation. However, the automated analysis of ultrasound images is complicated because they are patient-specific, operatordependent, and machine-specific. Among various types of fetal biometry, the accurate estimation of abd...
متن کاملA Novel Portable Scissors-Type Fruit Picking Device
At present, the fruit picking in most countries still largely relies on manual operation. Manual fruit picking can protect the fruits from damage during the operation process. However, it is time-consuming and labor-intensive, and poses a potential safety risk to the workers while working at heights not reachable. Therefore, a variety of fruit picking machines and platforms have been developed ...
متن کاملAutomatic measurement of instantaneous changes in the walls of carotid artery with sequential ultrasound images
Introduction: This study presents a computerized analyzing method for detection of instantaneous changes of far and near walls of the common carotid artery in sequential ultrasound images by applying the maximum gradient algorithm. Maximum gradient was modified and some characteristics were added from the dynamic programming algorithm for our applications. Methods: The algorithm was evaluat...
متن کاملProceedings of Challenge US: Biometric Measurements from Fetal Ultrasound Images
Our fully automatic method to compute the biparietal diameter (BPD) and occipitofrontal diameter (OFD) from fetal ultrasound images is based on fitting an ellipse modelling the head contour of the fetus to ultrasound images. This is achieved by minimizing a cost function with respect to the parameters of the ellipse using a global multiscale multistart Nelder-Mead algorithm.
