This study was to explore the value of the deep dictionary learning algorithm in constructing a B ultrasound scoring system and exploring its application in the clinical diagnosis and treatment of pernicious placenta previa (PPP). 60 patients with PPP were divided into a low-risk group (severe, implantable) and high-risk group (adhesive, penetrating) according to their clinical characteristics, B ultrasound imaging characteristics, and postpartum pathological examination results. Under PPP ultrasonic image information using the deep learning algorithm, the B ultrasound image diagnostic scoring system was established to predict the depth of various types of placenta accreta. The results showed that the cut-off values of severe, implantable, adhesive, and penetrating types were <2.3, 2.3-6.5, 6.5-9, and ≥9 points, respectively; there were significant differences in the termination of pregnancy and neonatal birth weight between the two groups (P < 0.05); the positive predictive value, negative predictive value, and false positive rate of ultrasound images based on the deep dictionary learning algorithm for PPP were 95.33%, 94.89%, and 3.56%, respectively. Thus, the ultrasound image diagnostic scoring system based on the deep learning algorithm has an important predictive role for PPP, which can provide a more targeted diagnosis and treatment plan for patients in clinical practice and improve the prediction and treatment efficiency.

Ultrasound I: Abdominal Ultrasonography
Abdominal ultrasonography, commonly known as abdominal ultrasound, is a vital, non-invasive medical imaging technique widely used in healthcare.
Procedure:
This diagnostic tool allows the clinician to visually inspect internal structures within the abdomen, including vital organs such as the liver, gallbladder, pancreas, kidneys, and spleen.
The abdominal ultrasound process begins with applying a special gel to the patient's skin over the abdomen. This gel enhances the...
