Computer aided diagnostic methods have been helping medical experts for monitoring fetus health for many years. The use of new methods has made a positive effect in monitoring the health of fetus as well as the diagnosis of anomalies. This study first introduces the indicators for identifying anomalies in fetus and gives basic information about computer-based methods such as traditional image processing, machine learning and deep learning. Then an overview of existing studies which use novel techniques on monitoring fetus health and anomaly detection from ultrasound images is given. Finally, the main challenges of novel techniques and future directions of research on computer-aided monitoring of fetus health are summarized.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
