BRIEF DESCRIPTION OF DRAWINGS
[0042] Figure 1 A flow chart of the pediatric orthopedic monitoring method provided by the present invention;
[0043] Figure 2 for Figure 1 Specific step diagram of step S103 in FIG. DETAILED DESCRIPTION
[0044] The following will clearly and completely describe the technical solutions in the embodiments of the present invention in conjunction with the accompanying drawings. Obviously, the described embodiments are only part of the embodiments of the present invention, not all of the embodiments. Based on the embodiments of the present invention, all other embodiments obtained by ordinary technicians in this field without making creative efforts are within the scope of protection of the present invention.
[0045] Combine Figure 1 As shown, a specific embodiment of the present invention discloses a pediatric orthopedic monitoring method, comprising:
[0046] S101, acquiring monitoring image data and monitoring video data;
[0047] S102, performing image recognition on the monitoring image data to obtain leg shape feature data;
[0048] S103, performing video recognition on the monitoring image data to obtain gait feature data;
[0049] S104: Obtain monitoring results based on the leg shape feature data and the gait feature data.
[0050] In the above process, the monitoring image data and monitoring video data are pictures of the child's legs, feet, torso and other parts taken by parents, as well as walking videos. In practice, a shooting auxiliary function for each body part can be designed and added at the data acquisition end to help users obtain photos that meet the requirements and remind them to retake them. In addition, in the above process, after obtaining the leg shape feature data and gait feature data, how to analyze and obtain the monitoring results is a process that can be thought of by those skilled in the art and can be obtained through experiments. The specific implementation method is related to the actual specific diagnostic method, so this article does not make too many restrictions.
[0051] Furthermore, in a preferred embodiment, the leg shape feature data includes leg shape regression data and leg shape classification data. On this basis, the above step S102, performing image recognition on the monitoring image data to obtain the leg shape feature data, specifically includes:
[0052] Based on the preset image recognition algorithm, image recognition is performed on the monitoring image data to obtain leg shape regression data;
[0053] The leg type regression data is input into a preset classification decision model to obtain leg type classification data.
[0054] In the above process, the leg type regression data refers to data capable of representing leg type characteristics obtained by regression operation, such as determination of continuous values such as arch index and knee distance. The leg type classification data refers to data capable of representing leg type characteristics obtained by classification operation, such as X-shaped leg and arch abnormality. The preset classification decision model can be any existing model capable of decision making, such as decision tree.
[0055] In this embodiment, by combining leg type regression data and classification data, the preset image recognition algorithm is used to extract continuous quantitative indicators (regression data) such as arch index and knee distance, to realize accurate geometric shape analysis of leg type. At the same time, the regression data is input into the classification decision model to divide the leg type into different risk levels (classification data), forming a "quantitative + qualitative" dual-track evaluation system. This mechanism not only guarantees the professionalism and refinement of diagnosis, but also improves the detection efficiency and standardization, supports dynamic tracking of development trend and graded intervention guidance, and significantly optimizes the precision and practicality of adolescent orthopedic health management.
[0056] Specifically, in a preferred embodiment, the leg type feature data includes arch height and foot length, the preset image recognition algorithm includes a Canny edge detection algorithm, and the step S102 of performing image recognition on the monitoring image data to obtain leg type feature data includes:
[0057] Obtaining monitoring image data;
[0058] Performing edge detection on the monitoring image data based on the Canny edge detection algorithm to obtain foot contour data;
[0059] Detecting an arch curve based on Hough transform according to the foot contour data to obtain the arch height and the foot length.
[0060] This embodiment uses the Canny edge detection algorithm to extract the foot contour, and combines Hough transform to accurately calculate the arch height and the foot length, which has high precision and high efficiency. Through mature algorithm modular design, it is suitable for mobile devices and supports dynamic expansion. The quantitative parameters can be directly used for personalized evaluation of flat foot and other foot deformities, improving the diagnosis efficiency and user experience.
[0061] In addition, in another embodiment, the leg type feature data further includes knee distance, and the preset image recognition algorithm further includes a key point algorithm. On this basis, the step S102 of performing image recognition on the monitoring image data based on the preset image recognition algorithm to obtain leg type regression data further includes:
[0062] Obtaining monitoring image data and corresponding shooting pose data;
[0063] perform key point detection on the monitoring image data based on a key point detection algorithm to obtain knee key points;
[0064] perform feature transformation on the knee key points according to the shooting pose data to obtain actual coordinates of the key points;
[0065] obtain the knee distance according to the distance between the actual coordinates of the key points.
[0066] The embodiment automatically identifies knee joint points in combination with the key point detection algorithm, and corrects spatial deviation by using the shooting pose data, so as to realize accurate quantification of the knee distance. Not only is the leg type multi-dimensional evaluation system improved, but also the shooting error is eliminated through pose correction, the detection robustness is improved, complex scene application is supported, and the data linkage analysis and diagnosis capability is enhanced.
[0067] Further, in combination with Figure 2 as shown, in one preferred embodiment, S103, video recognition is performed on the monitoring image data to obtain gait feature data, specifically including:
[0068] S201, monitoring image data is obtained;
[0069] S202, feature recognition is performed on each frame of image of the monitoring image data to obtain original feature point coordinates;
[0070] S203, a gait cycle is obtained according to the time sequence relationship between the original feature point coordinates corresponding to each frame of image;
[0071] S204, a plurality of original feature point coordinates are divided according to the gait cycle to obtain a plurality of groups of target feature point coordinates;
[0072] S205, gait feature data is obtained according to the plurality of groups of target feature point coordinates.
[0073] The embodiment analyzes the monitoring image data frame by frame, extracts time sequence features, and divides the gait cycle, which has the following advantages. First, the original feature point coordinates are identified frame by frame, and the gait cycle is determined based on the time sequence relationship, so that the lower limb movement in the walking process is accurately captured. Second, the method does not need to rely on complex external equipment, and can complete the analysis only by using video data, which is suitable for home scenes and improves the detection convenience. In addition, the algorithm models the time sequence of the feature points to effectively filter noise interference and enhance the data reliability. Finally, the generated gait feature data can be directly associated with the motion function evaluation and abnormal risk early warning, and provides dynamic and continuous intelligent analysis support for child orthopedic health monitoring.
[0074] Specifically, in a preferred embodiment, in the above process, the multiple sets of target feature point coordinates include heel touch point coordinates, foot feature point coordinates, hip / knee joint feature point coordinates, and the gait feature data includes step symmetry, foot arch collapse data, and joint range of motion. Correspondingly, the above step S305, obtaining gait feature data according to the multiple sets of target feature point coordinates, specifically includes:
[0075] obtaining step symmetry according to the heel touch point coordinates;
[0076] obtaining foot arch collapse data according to the foot feature point coordinates;
[0077] obtaining joint range of motion according to the hip / knee joint feature point coordinates.
[0078] The above process provides some preferred gait feature analysis methods. Specifically, the step length of the left and right feet can be calculated according to the heel touch point coordinates, and then the step symmetry can be analyzed. The trajectory of the key points of the foot during walking can be calculated through the foot feature point coordinates, and then the foot arch collapse degree can be analyzed. For example, the foot feature point coordinates include calcaneus coordinates, first metatarsal head coordinates, and fifth metatarsal head coordinates, a first vector is established according to the calcaneus coordinates and the first metatarsal head coordinates, a second vector is established according to the calcaneus coordinates and the fifth metatarsal head coordinates, and then the cosine angle of the first vector and the second vector is analyzed as the foot arch collapse data. The length of the joint at rest, the maximum range of motion of the joint, the hip flexion angle, the hip extension angle, and other data can be calculated through the hip / knee joint feature point coordinates, and then the flexion amplitude is obtained as the joint range of motion.
[0079] The application also provides a pediatric orthopedic monitoring system, comprising:
[0080] a picture recognition and diagnosis module for running the pediatric orthopedic monitoring method of any one of the above.
[0081] Specifically, the picture recognition and diagnosis module can be set on the parent's mobile phone or computer, and can be used to submit the child's monitoring image data and monitoring video data and other related information, including classification selection data and secondary classification selection data of core parts such as foot bottom, lower limbs, upper limbs, and spine, and related medical record information, corresponding video and picture data, and establishing a personal information center. At the same time, the child's personal information, contact information, follow-up consultation records, and other information can also be submitted.
[0082] Further, in a preferred embodiment, the health management system further comprises:
[0083] a medical record unified input and retrieval module for storing monitoring image data, monitoring video data, and monitoring results, and the medical record unified input and retrieval module is associated with an existing medical record database.
[0084] The medical record unified input and retrieval module is built on the basis of the existing medical record system in the hospital, and is a faster, more complete and more convenient database system. It is mainly used for data migration and integration, ensures that the database contains the existing medical records of the hospital, and ensures the integrity and accuracy of the data, and optimizes the database structure and index to improve the speed and efficiency of data query, so that doctors can view the multi-dimensional data of patients at any time and anywhere through mobile phones and computers, and quickly locate and find the records of any patient.
