Attention-ResUNet for Automated Fetal Head Segmentation

arXiv CS.LG

ArXi:2604.18148v1 Announce Type: cross Automated fetal head segmentation in ultrasound images is critical for accurate biometric measurements in prenatal care. While existing deep learning approaches have achieved a reasonable performance, they struggle with issues like low contrast, noise, and complex anatomical boundaries which are inherent to ultrasound imaging. This paper presents Attention-ResUNet. It is a novel architecture that synergistically combines residual learning with multi-scale attention mechanisms in order to achieve enhanced fetal head segmentation.
