Medical image analysis for simplified ultrasound protocols

Abstract:

Ultrasound is an imaging tool used in obstetrics to identify high-risk pregnancies. However, ultrasound (US) requires a trained operator, who guides a transducer in response to real-time interpretation of video content. In low- and middle-income countries (LMICs), there is a shortage of trained sonographers. In this thesis, we address this key challenge by combining simple US video sweeps with computational algorithms to provide clinical benefit. The sweeps can be taken by an US novice. Firs...
