智能胎儿NT图像质量控制系统的研究智能胎儿NT图像质量控制系统的研究

摘要

胎儿颈部透明带厚度（NT值）是评估胎儿先天心脏病和唐氏综合征风险的重要指标之一。目前NT值的测量已普遍采用超声技术，但由于操作者技术水平不同和设备性能差异，NT图像质量参差不齐，影响了预测结果的准确性和可靠性。因此，本研究旨在设计一种基于人工智能和机器学习技术的智能胎儿NT图像质量控制系统，提高NT测量的准确性和图像质量的稳定性。

首先，本研究利用深度学习算法设计了一种自动提取NT图像特征的算法，并结合多任务学习算法对图像进行二分类：高质量和低质量。进一步，本研究设计了一种基于梯度下降法的深度神经网络模型来完成高质量胎儿NT图像的检测和提取。同时，本研究建立了一个国内外胎儿NT图像数据库，并从中分选出高质量胎儿NT图像来训练和调整模型参数。

本研究对模型进行了测试和评估，结果表明模型对高质量胎儿NT图像的检测和提取精度和稳定性均较高，具有较好的实用性和可行性。此外，本研究还通过案例分析验证了系统的应用价值，展示了新一代智能胎儿NT图像质量控制体系在实际临床应用中的优越性。
