3D Ultrasound Spine Image Selection Using Convolution Learning-to-Rank Algorithm

Juan Lyu;Sai Ho Ling;Sunetra Banerjee;Jenny J.Y. Zheng;Ka-Lee Lai;De Yang;Yong-Ping Zheng;Steven Su

3D Ultrasound imaging has become an important means of scoliosis assessment as it is a real-time, cost-effective and radiation-free imaging technique. However, the coronal images from different depths of a 3D ultrasound image have different imaging definitions. So there is a need to select the coronal image that would give the best image definition. Also, manual selection of coronal images is time...Show More

Automatic Measurement of Spine Curvature on 3-D Ultrasound Volume Projection Image With Phase Features

Guang-Quan Zhou;Wei-Wei Jiang;Ka-Lee Lai;Yong-Ping Zheng

IEEE Transactions on Medical Imaging

Year: 2017 | Volume: 36, Issue: 6 | Journal Article |

This paper presents an automated measurement of spine curvature by using prior knowledge on vertebral anatomical structures in ultrasound volume projection imaging (VPI). This method can be used in scoliosis assessment with free-hand 3-D ultrasound imaging. It is based on the extraction of bony features from VPI images using a newly proposed two-fold thresholding strategy, with information of the ...Show More

The standing radiograph is used as a gold standard to diagnose spinal deformity including scoliosis, a medical condition defined as lateral spine curvature . However, the health concern of X-ray and large inter-observer variation of measurements on X-ray images have significantly restricted its application, particularly for scoliosis screening and close follow-up for adolescent patients. In this s...Show More
