Cesarean Scar Defect Segmentation in Transvaginal Ultrasound Images: a Dataset and Benchmark 文章

arXiv:2605.26774v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Cesarean Scar Defect (CSD) is one of the most prevalent complications following cesarean delivery. Transvaginal ultrasonography is widely used for primary CSD screening. Accurate determination of CSD outline and dimensions is crucial for treatment. However, CSDs are frequently overlooked by sonographers due to small size and irregular morphology, suboptimal image quality, and limited clinical awareness in resource-constrained settings. Despite artificial intelligence advances in medical imaging, no public dataset exists for transvaginal ultrasound CSD segmentation. To address this gap, we present a comprehensive CSD dataset comprising 1,111 images and 16 videos, yielding 501 positive samples with confirmed CSD and precise pixel-level manual annotations. Annotations are performed following standardized clinical guidelines through collaboration between experienced sonographers and trained PhD students.
