Automatic Evaluation of Progression Angle and Fetal Head Station through Intrapartum Echographic Monitoring

Figure 4

Example of algorithm output. The dashed green outline represents the fetal head; the white dashed line represents the symphysis longitudinal axis; the solid white line is the line perpendicular to the symphysis longitudinal axis; the solid green line is the line passing by the fetal head outermost point; the solid white double line is the connection between the symphysis distal end and the fetal head outermost point. (a) Image representing FHS = 0 cm and PA = 90°; (b) image representing FHS = 1.8 cm and PA = 103°.
