METHOD FOR AUTOMATED MEASUREMENT OF NUCHAL TRANSLUCENCY IN A FETAL ULTRASOUND IMAGE

摘要

The present invention relates to a method for automatic measurement of fetal ultrasound neck Zona, Zona measurement of the fetal neck In the method, image acquisition step of acquiring an ultrasound image of the fetus on the neck zona pellucida (S10), the boundary extraction step of extracting the boundary layer from the zona pellucida of the neck ultrasound image (S30), automatically calculates the distance to calculate the distance between the boundary Step (S40), and the distance calculated in the calculation step the thickness value of the zona pellucida neck includes a display step (S50) for display. Accordingly, the invention is the perimeter of the neck, neck embryo zona layer extracted automatically from the zona pellucida and the ultrasound image, the measurement of the fetal neck so that the zona pellucida, by automatically calculating the distance between the extracted boundary display the thickness measurements to the outside of the fetal neck Zona and promote the accuracy and convenience for, has an effect that enables the objective diagnosis of the fetal neck Zona ultrasound image.
