Automated Diagnosis of the Frequency of Uterine Peristalsis for Female Infertility

This paper aims to measure the frequency of uterine peristalsis from ultrasound image. In it, we decide the frequency of the uterine peristalsis from the ultrasound image of the uterine in the implantation phase. Traces of uterine peristalsis are semi-automatically done from the images with location-axis and time-axis, and uterine peristalsis are analyzed by Fourier transform for 3 minutes. As a result, the frequency of uterine peristalsis was decided as the frequency with the dominant frequency ingredient with maximum value among the frequency spectrum. Thereby, we evaluated the number of the frequency of uterine peristalsis quantitatively from ultrasound image.
