Wavelet filtering of fetal phonocardiography: A comparative analysis
Fetal heart rate (FHR) monitoring can serve as a benchmark to identify high-risk fetuses. Fetal phonocardiogram (FPCG) is the recording of the fetal heart sounds (FHS) by means of a small acoustic sensor placed on maternal abdomen.

Multi-Task Learning Approach for Unified Biometric Estimation from Fetal Ultrasound Anomaly Scans [PDF]
Precise estimation of fetal biometry parameters from ultrasound images is vital for evaluating fetal growth, monitoring health, and identifying potential complications reliably. However, the automated computerized segmentation of the fetal head, abdomen, and femur from ultrasound images, along with the subsequent measurement of fetal biometrics ...

Monitoring fetal electroencephalogram intrapartum: a systematic literature review [PDF]
Background: Studies about the feasibility of monitoring fetal electroencephalogram (fEEG) during labor began in the early 1940s. By the 1970s, clear diagnostic and prognostic benefits from intrapartum fEEG monitoring were reported, but until today, this monitoring technology has remained a curiosity.
