Vein and artery recognition system based on neural network

Abstract

The invention provides a vein and artery recognition system based on a neural network, and the system comprises: an ultrasonic image input unit which is used for inputting an ultrasonic image and inputting a to-be-recognized ultrasonic image into a neural network model for processing; the neural network model that is used for acquiring position information of veins and arteries from the ultrasonicimage to be recognized through the neural network model; and the ultrasonic image generation unit that is used for differentially marking veins and arteries according to the acquired position information and generating ultrasonic images containing vein marks and artery marks. The system is used for automatically identifying arteries and veins in an ultrasonic image to be identified, is safe and efficient, can help doctors to improve the diagnosis accuracy, better assists the doctors to identify the arteries and veins, and further assists the doctors to perform venipuncture.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to the technical field of medical ultrasound, in particular to a neural network-based vein and artery recognition method and system. Background technique [0002] In clinical medicine, many endovascular operations require catheter placement and puncture on veins, such as in the right jugular vein, such as central venous catheter placement, hemodynamic measurements, myocardial biopsy, and cardiac ablation. During jugular venipuncture, doctors rely on vision, touch, and experience to manually judge the location of blood vessels, such as detecting the pressure in the blood vessels and observing the color of blood to identify the nature of the blood vessels. These methods for judging the jugular vein based on blood vessel pressure and blood color have poor reliability. If the puncture needle enters the jugular vein, follow-up operations such as dilation and catheterization will continue; if the puncture needle is located in the caroti...

Problems solved by technology

However, at present, the identification of arteries and veins in ultrasound images is still almost done manually, especially the identification of carotid arteries and jugular veins, which requires the operator to have professional knowledge of ultrasound imaging, which also causes the uncertainty of the identification results, which cannot be minimized. The risk of the surgery; at the same time, it also limits the promotion and popularization of ultrasound-guided jugular vein puncture
