Automated Recognition and Measurement for Levator Hiatus in <scp>3D</scp> Ultrasound

Automated software is feasible for the recognition and measurement of LH in postpartum women, which can reduce the inter-observer variability, standardize pelvic floor assessment and improve workflow efficiency. Our study supports the clinical utility of CNN-based AI ultrasound software, but optimization is needed for LUG measurements to enhance clinical applicability.

Abstract

Automated software is feasible for the recognition and measurement of LH in postpartum women, which can reduce the inter-observer variability, standardize pelvic floor assessment and improve workflow efficiency. Our study supports the clinical utility of CNN-based AI ultrasound software, but optimization is needed for LUG measurements to enhance clinical applicability.
