A New Approach in Detectability of Microcalcifications in the Placenta during Pregnancy Using Textural Features and K-Nearest Neighbors Algorithm

Abstract: (1) Background: Ultrasonography is the main method used during pregnancy to assess the fetal growth, amniotic fluid, umbilical cord and placenta. The placenta’s structure suffers dynamic modifications throughout the whole pregnancy and many of these changes, in which placental microcalcifications are by far the most prominent, are related to the process of aging and maturation and have no effect on fetal wellbeing. However, when placental microcalcifications are noticed earlier during pregnancy, they could sug… Show more

“…KNN considers the similarity factor between new and available data to classify an object into predefined categories. KNN has been widely used in many fields such as industry [7][8][9], machine engineering [10], health [11][12][13], marketing [14], electrical engineering [15], security [16][17][18], manufacturing [19], energy [20][21][22], aerial [23], environment [24], geology [25,26], maritime [27,28], geographical information systems (GIS) [29], and transportation [30].…”

“…The outperformance of their method was evaluated in terms of various metrics and approved its applicability in the healthcare system for diabetes compared to other techniques. In another work [12], the researchers focused on an approach to early detect placental microcalcification by the KNN algorithm, which could lead to the improvement of maternal and fetal health monitoring during pregnancy. The results gained from real clinical datasets revealed the efficiency of the proposed model for pregnant women.…”

“…Regarding the GLCM, it has a large amount of data, which is not conducive to the extraction of image features; therefore, authors in [35] defined the statistical data such as moment of contrast (Con), correlation (Cor), energy (En), and entropy (Ent) to summarize the characteristic information in GLCM. The relevant calculation methods are shown in Equations ( 1)-( 4) [36].…”
