Embodiment Construction

[0040] The technical solutions of the present invention will be further described below in conjunction with specific embodiments.

[0041] Such as figure 1 As shown, the specific embodiment of the present invention is: provide a kind of fetal ultrasonic image automatic measurement method, comprise the steps:

[0042]Step 100: Acquire an ultrasound image and determine the range to be measured in the two-dimensional ultrasound image of the fetus, that is, acquire a two-dimensional ultrasound image of the fetus. The specific working process is as follows: First, after receiving the external start signal, the device of the ultrasonic diagnostic system starts to work; then by obtaining the echo signal of the ultrasonic probe, and processing the signal, generating and outputting the ultrasonic image of the fetus to be tested; Or the abdominal circumference area is placed in the middle of the image. In the present invention, the fetal image is in the middle of the ultrasound image; ...

Abstract

The invention relates to a method for automatically measuring an ultrasound image of a fetus, comprising the steps of obtaining an ultrasound image; enhancing an edge gray scale of a head circumference or an abdominal circumference of the fetus; identifying a region of the head circumference or the abdominal circumference of the fetus; obtaining a single-pixel edge image; and calculating the length of the head circumference or the abdominal circumference of the fetus. Because automatic measurement is adopted, by means of the application of the method, the image region of the head circumference or the abdominal circumference of the fetus can be automatically identified, the edge of the head circumference or the abdominal circumference can be automatically detected and located and the circumferential length of the edge of the head circumference or the abdominal circumference can be automatically measured, therefore parameters of the fetus, such as a gestational age, a fetal weight and the like can be automatically estimated. Compared with a method for manually locating a line-drawing mark in manual measurement, the method disclosed by the invention is more accurate to measure and locate so that a measurement result of the fetus is more accurate; meanwhile, the repeated and boring works of a user can be reduced, the efficiency of an ultrasonic diagnosis system is increased and the method is more convenient and faster to use.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to a method and system for measuring ultrasound images, in particular to an automatic measurement method and system for ultrasound images of fetuses. Background technique [0002] Due to its non-invasive advantages, the B-mode ultrasonic diagnostic system is increasingly used in medical diagnosis, especially in obstetrical examinations; as the country vigorously promotes eugenics, doctors can use B-ultrasound to monitor the fetal development process In order to achieve the purpose of eugenics; in the ultrasound image of obstetric examination, the fetal head circumference or abdominal circumference is clearly displayed and easy to measure. By measuring the fetal head circumference or abdominal circumference, the gestational age and fetal weight; therefore, head circumference and abdominal circumference are important parameters to measure fetal growth and development. [0003] In the current ultrasonic two-dimensional image measure...
