AI overview

Google Research reported that an AI model estimating gestational age from blind sweep ultrasounds performed by novice operators met a prospective study’s non-inferiority criterion against expert sonographers. Among 385 participants between 16 and 36 weeks of pregnancy in Chicago and Nairobi, the model’s mean absolute error was 4.18 days, compared with 4.48 days for expert sonographers. The study, published in JAMA Network Open, evaluated how well the model generalized across clinical settings and ultrasound hardware. Fine-tuning used data from 120 Chicago participants; no Nairobi data was used for local optimization.
