Many infants are born with unstable hips which can cause severe mobility issues as they grow older. This condition is known as developmental dysplasia of the hip (DDH), and although it is the most common hip disorder in infants, its diagnosis using 2D ultrasound (US) is prone to significant variability. This paper presents methods to reliably and automatically diagnose DDH in infants using 3D US. Based on 40 infant hip examinations, we demonstrate a 70% reduction in variability of 3D US-based measurements compared to those of standard 2D US-based measurements. |
