AUTOMATED ULTRASOUND VIDEO INTERPRETATION OF A BODY PART, SUCH AS A LUNG, WITH ONE OR MORE CONVOLUTIONAL NEURAL NETWORKS SUCH AS A SINGLE-SHOT-DETECTOR CONVOLUTIONAL NEURAL NETWORK

摘要

In an embodiment, an intelligent system includes an electronic circuit configured to execute a neural network, to detect at least one feature in an image of a body portion while executing the neural network, and to determine a respective position and a respective class of each of the detected at least one feature while executing the neural network. For example, such a system can execute a neural network to detect at least one feature in an image of a lung, to determine a respective position within the image of each detected feature, and to classify each of the detected features as one of the following: A-line, B-line, pleural line, consolidation, and pleural effusion.
