Patent Issued for Fetal head direction measuring device and method (USPTO 12059290).

Guangzhou Lian-Med Technology Co. Ltd. has been issued a patent for a fetal head direction measuring device and method. The device includes a medical ultrasonic probe, an angle sensor, and a data processing unit. The angle sensor senses the angular change of the scanning direction of the probe, and the data processing unit calculates the fetal head direction based on the directional angle of fetal head feature points in the ultrasonic image and the included angle between the initial and measurement positions of the probe. The invention aims to provide a more convenient and flexible method for measuring fetal head orientation. [Extracted from the article]
