Abstract: Provided herein are systems and methods for automatically computing fetal heart parameters, such as fetal heart rate, from M-mode ultrasound data and/or B-mode ultrasound data. In particular, the systems and methods involve: (i) obtaining ultrasound input data comprising M- mode ultrasound data along a cardiac plane of a fetus; (ii) automatically localizing one or more regions of motion present based on the ultrasound input data; (iii) labeling the one or more regions of motion based on domain knowledge, wherein each labelled region of motion corresponds to a different anatomy of the fetus; (iv) analyzing the M-mode ultrasound data to determine a periodicity for one or more of the regions of motion; and (v) determining one or more fetal heart parameters based on the periodicity determined for the one or more regions of motions.
