Background and objective Examination of head shape and brain during the fetal period is
paramount to evaluate head growth, predict neurodevelopment, and to diagnose fetal …

In this paper we present a computer aided detection (CAD) system for automated
measurement of the fetal head circumference (HC) in 2D ultrasound images for all trimesters …

Objectives To identify all available studies assessing the use of portable ultrasound devices
for pregnant women, with the specific aim of finding evidence for devices used to determine …

Abstract Background and Objectives Measuring head-circumference (HC) length from
ultrasound (US) images is a crucial clinical task to assess fetus growth. To lower intra-and …

Confirmation of pregnancy viability (presence of fetal cardiac activity) and diagnosis of fetal
presentation (head or buttock in the maternal pelvis) are the first essential components of …

Purpose Fetal brain abnormalities are some of the most common congenital malformations
that may associated with syndromic and chromosomal malformations, and could lead to …

Purpose Fetal head circumference (HC) is an important biometric parameter that can be
used to assess fetal development in obstetric clinical practice. Most of the existing methods …

Owing to the inconsistent image quality existing in routine obstetric ultrasound (US) scans
that leads to a large intraobserver and interobserver variability, the aim of this study is to …

In fetal cardiology, echocardiographic imaging has been shown to aid in the diagnosis of
fetal monitoring for the development of fetal heart function. The small heart size and the lack …

Background: This paper reviews segmentation techniques for 2D ultrasound fetal images.
Fetal anatomy measurements derived from the segmentation results are used to monitor the …
