Abstract

The clinical fetal brain ultrasound image contains a lot of noise, which is impact the classification or recognition results in deep learning tasks. Therefore, proposed an improved fully convolutional network which can automatically eliminate noise and extract effective area in fetal brain ultrasound images. By adding dilated convolution, U-net obtained a larger receptive field. The original U-net neural network was compared with the method by adding dilated convolution one. The experiment of test data shows that the improved segmentation model was effective and robust, and performed better in precise rate, recall rate, f1-score and DICE coefficient. This improved method can be wildly used in other medical image segmentation tasks.
