Automatic CNS diseases real-time detection in first-trimester fetal
ultrasound image via deep neural networks
Abstract
Objective This paper proposed the method of real-time detection of CNS
diseases using object recognition network that mainly detects abnormal
planes in video and evaluates the performance and feasibility of the
object recognition network in classifying disease planes. Design Central
nervous system cases, random sampling. Setting Prenatal ultrasound
images from Maternal and Child Healthcare Hospital, Hubei. Sample A
total of 515 fetal with First-trimesters. Methods Compare the three
different models was training by the same dataset, including Exencephaly
plane, Holoprosencephaly plane, and two normal planes. Main Outcome
Measures Compare the F1 scores of other classification networks on the
original dataset and the ROI dataset and test the detection speed and
accuracy in the real-time video. Results The our model achieved 92%
accuracy in the test set, this result is higher than other models in the
classification accuracy of the original data and ROI data is 56% and
87%, and can achieve real-time detection and location that to detect
the speed of each frame in 0.04 seconds. Conclusions The aim is to
detect disease planes of the CNS in real-time. But the model still has
deficiencies and lacks confidence in the detection of certain disease
levels, when there is the fake shadow in the disease plane, the model
can easily detect erroneous results. This is unavoidable to small data
sets, and the model also needs to continuously increase non-disease data
to reduce the error rate. The results of this article have greatly
increased our confidence and are instructive for future work.
