AUTOMATIC DETECTION METHOD OF A MID-SAGITTAL PLANE USING AN ULTRASONIC IMAGE CAPABLE OF IMPROVING ACCURACY AND A DEVICE USING THE SAME

摘要

PURPOSE: An automatic detection method of a mid-sagittal plane using an ultrasonic image and a device using the same are provided to supply the internal image of an object to a doctor in real time, and thereby the doctor is capable of examining the state of a fetus accurately.;CONSTITUTION: At least one ultrasonic image is obtained (S610). The face of an object is detected in the ultrasonic image (S620). At least one landmark is detected in the detected face (S630). Landmark information is detected which includes at least one of the brightness and shape of the landmark (S640). A mid-sagittal plane is detected using the landmark information (S650).;COPYRIGHT KIPO 2013;[Reference numerals] (AA) Start; (BB) End; (S610) At least one ultrasonic image is obtained; (S620) Face of an object is detected in the ultrasonic image; (S630) Landmark is detected; (S640) Landmark information is detected; (S650) Mid-sagittal plane is detected
