A deep learning late-fusion model using sagittal T2 MRI predicts postpartum hemorrhage risk with high accuracy.
Key Details
- 1Study involved 581 pregnant women with suspected placenta accreta who underwent placental MRI from May 2018 to June 2024.
- 2Models compared: 2D and 3D deep learning, radiomics, clinical, and ensemble fusion models.
- 3Best performance: late-fusion deep learning model (validation set AUC: 0.90, sensitivity: 92%, specificity: 91%).
- 4MRI remains crucial for evaluating placental abnormalities; AI enhances risk prediction.
- 5Earlier identification enables tailored delivery planning and preparedness for hemorrhage risk.
Why It Matters
Effective AI-driven risk prediction could enable earlier intervention and resource planning for postpartum hemorrhage, a leading cause of maternal mortality. This study demonstrates the potential for integrating advanced imaging AI into women's imaging protocols to directly impact patient outcomes.
