AI Technical Summary

Benefits of technology

This patented technology allows us to use advanced techniques like Deep Learning (DL) or Convolution Neural Networks (CNN), making it possible to improve the quality of sonographic imaging data by reducing unwanted signals such as background clutter caused during scans. It also saves time because we only require one trained dataset per scan instead of multiple large datasets needed every few months due to its ability to efficiently process high volume data with fewer samples than current methods. Overall this makes processing more efficient and faster compared to existing methods.

Problems solved by technology

This patents discusses different methods used during ultrasonic examinations (ultrasounds) that aim at identifying if there're any signs about how well blood flows from specific parts of the body called the foetuses when they develop into newborn babies. These techniques require expensive equipment with advanced algorithms designed specifically for these types of imaging data. Additionally, existing approaches have limitations such as requiring multiple scans over several hours per patient, resulting in poor results.

Abstract

The invention discloses a denoising method for a human embryo heart ultrasonic image based on a deep convolutional neural network, and the method comprises the following steps: obtaining an ultrasonicimage data set with time sequence and space sequence features, selecting a central image, and determining an adjacent image of the central image; calculating the similarity between the central pixelof the central image and each pixel in the search domain corresponding to the adjacent image; calculating a central pixel gray value corresponding to the adjacent image according to the similarity information and averaging the central pixel gray value to obtain a final gray value of the central pixel; and constructing a deep convolutional neural network model, and inputting the ultrasonic image which is not denoised into the trained deep convolutional neural network model to carry out denoising processing to obtain a difference between the noise image and the clean image, namely a residual image.
