    Pelvic floor dysfunction (PFD) is common after total hysterectomy, necessitating efficient assessment methods due to its impact on quality of life.

  • 2

    The study proposes an automated analysis of transperineal ultrasound (TPUS) using deep learning to improve efficiency and objectivity in PFD evaluation.

  • 3

    A labeled dataset was created for anatomical landmarks, and a multi-scale shifted window Transformer was developed for automatic segmentation and key point detection.

  • 4

    The model achieved an average Dice coefficient of 88.67% in segmentation, with high consistency to manual annotations, indicating its reliability.
