Standard scan plane detection in fetal brain ultrasound (US) forms a crucial step in the assessment of fetal development. In clinical settings, this is done by manually manoeuvring a 2D probe to the desired scan plane. With the advent of 3D US, the entire fetal brain volume containing these standard planes can be easily acquired. However, manual standard plane identification in 3D volume is labour-intensive and requires expert knowledge of fetal anatomy. We propose a new Iterative Transformation Network (ITN) for the automatic detection of standard planes in 3D volumes. ITN uses a convolutional neural network to learn the relationship between a 2D plane image and the transformation parameters required to move that plane towards the location/orientation of the standard plane in the 3D volume. During inference, the current plane image is passed iteratively to the network until it converges to the standard plane location. We explore the effect of using different transformation representations as regression outputs of ITN. Under a multi-task learning framework, we introduce additional classification probability outputs to the network to act as confidence measures for the regressed transformation parameters in order to further improve the localisation accuracy. When evaluated on 72 US volumes of fetal brain, our method achieves an error of 3.83mm/12.7 degrees and 3.80mm/12.6 degrees for the transventricular and transcerebellar planes respectively and takes 0.46s per plane.

从胎儿超声图像中测量头部生物特征对于监测胎儿的健康发育具有重要意义。然而，相关解剖结构的准确测量在临床中受到较大的观察者间差异的影响。为了解决这个问题，提出了一种利用全卷积网络（FCN）来确定胎儿头围（HC）和双顶径（BPD）测量值的自动化方法。在常规筛查检查期间，在头部的大约2000个2D超声图像上训练FCN，所述图像具有由45个不同的超声医师提供的注释，以执行头部的语义分割。椭圆被拟合到所得到的分割轮廓，以模仿通常由声谱仪操作员产生的注释。该模型的性能与观察者间的变异性进行了比较，其中两位专家手动注释了100张测试图像。HC的平均绝对模型专家误差略优于观察者间误差（1.99 mm vs 2.16 mm），BPD（0.61 mm vs 0.59 mm）以及Dice系数（0.980 vs 0.980）相当。我们的研究结果表明，该模型的性能与人类专家相似，并学会从由许多超声医师注释的大型数据集中产生准确的预测。此外，在GPU上以15 fps的速度近实时生成测量结果，这可以加快熟练和实习超声医师的临床工作流程。
