Efficient Segmentation Network for Real-Time Blood Vessel Detection of Ultrasound Image on Mobile Devices

초록/요약

Needle guide technology is in the spotlight for safer and more accurate injections. Ultrasound imaging systems are widely used in needle guide applications because they can show real-time monitoring and help precise injections. It is important to detect the blood vessels that the needle will inject for accurate injection. This paper uses a deep learning method to detect blood vessels. With the advances in deep learning, the need for On-Device Machine Learning which applies to it to embedded systems using has increased. However, the low calculation power and low amount of memory are the limitations for On-Device Machine Learning in mobile devices. This study suggests an efficient segmentation network and implementation optimization for On-Device Machine Learning in mobile devices. Evaluations of human forearm data show that this method can segment blood vessels with real-time processing in mobile devices.
