Abstract
(1) Background: The prevention of critical situations is a key ability in medicine. Hip ultrasound for neonates is a standard procedure to prevent later critical outcomes, such as hip dysplasia. Additionally, the SARS-CoV-2 pandemic has put worldwide stress upon healthcare units, resulting often in a lack of sufficient medical personnel. This work aims to develop solutions to ease and speed up the process of coming to a correct diagnosis. (2) Methods: Traditional medical procedures are envisaged, but they are enhanced to reduce diagnosing errors due to the movements of the neonates. Echographic noise filtering and contrast correction methods are implemented the Hyperanalytic Wavelet Transform, combined with an adaptive Soft Thresholding Filter. The algorithm is tailored to infants’ structure and is tested on real ultrasounds provided by the “Victor Babes” University of Medicine and Pharmacy. Denoising and contrast correction problems are targeted. (3) Results: In available clinical cases, the noise affecting the image was reduced and the contrast was enhanced. (4) Discussion: We noticed that a significant amount of noise can be added to the image, as the patients are neonates and can hardly avoid movements. (5) Conclusions: The algorithm is personalized with no fixed reference value. Any device easing the clinical procedures of physicians has a practical medical application.
