Embodiment 1

[0054] This embodiment discloses a fast and fully automatic measurement method for fetal head circumference based on two-dimensional ultrasonic images, such as figure 1 As shown, it mainly includes the following steps:

[0055] S1. Acquiring two-dimensional ultrasound images of the fetus and recording them as original images. After receiving the external starting signal, the ultrasonic diagnostic system starts to work, generates and displays the ultrasonic image of the fetus to be tested, and places the head circumference of the fetus in the middle of the image. A total of 500 ultrasound images were collected, and the size of each image was 768*512.

[0056] S2, build based on such as figure 2 The fully convolutional neural network shown is based on the full convolutional neural network for semantic segmentation of ultrasound images in fetal head ultrasound data, from which ROI regions are initially segmented.

[0057] In this embodiment, the step S2 includes the following...

Abstract

The invention discloses a full-automatic head circumference measuring method and device based on an ultrasonic image for a fetus. The method comprises the steps of S1, acquiring a two-dimensional ultrasound image of the head of the fetus; S2, constructing a full convolution neural network, carrying out semantic segmentation on the two-dimensional ultrasonic image of the head of the fetus accordingto the full convolution neural network, and preliminarily segmenting out an ROI region from the two-dimensional ultrasonic image; S3, acquiring the outline of the ROI region; S4, carrying out ellipsefitting on the outline of the ROI region of the head of the fetus; S5, calculating the head circumference length of the fetus according to the ellipse. The method is realized on the basis of a deep learning method and an image processing technology, the skull of the fetus in the ultrasonic image can be rapidly and accurately integrated, and the head circumference of the fetus can be calculated according to the corresponding relationship between pixels and actual length.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to the fields of childbirth monitoring and ultrasonic image processing research, in particular to a method and device for fully automatic measurement of fetal head circumference based on ultrasonic images. Background technique [0002] B-mode ultrasonic diagnostic system is more and more used in medical diagnosis, especially in obstetrical examination, due to its advantages of non-invasiveness, low price and safety. Doctors can use B-ultrasound to detect various growth parameters in the process of fetal development, so as to achieve the purpose of eugenics. In the ultrasound images of obstetrical examination, the fetal head circumference is clearly displayed and easy to measure. By measuring the fetal head circumference, the fetal weight or gestational age can be estimated; therefore, the fetal head circumference is an important parameter to measure fetal growth and development. [0003] At present, clinicians mainly manually det...
