The purpose of the study is to develop and validate an algorithm based on deep neural networks (DNNs) to identify interscalene brachial plexus on ultrasonography automatically.
The investigators plan to develop a deep learning-based network to automatically identify interscalene brachial nerves on ultrasound images. The trained model will be validated on an independent dataset. The performance of the network will also be compared against practicing anesthesiologists.

| Label | Type | Description | Intervention Names |
|---|---|---|---|
| Image collecting Group | Experimental | An computer algorithm will be developed and evaluated by these image data. |

|---|---|---|---|---|
| ultrasound examination | Procedure | the participants will be placed in the supine position, with head turned slightly away from the operating side and arms beside the body. The operator will identify right and left interscalene brachial plexuses by ultrasound equipment (Sonosite EDGE or GE LOGIQ e). Clear images and videos of brachial plexus will be captured and saved. |
| Measure | Description | Time Frame |
|---|---|---|
| The distance of the lateral midpoints of the nerve sheath contours | between model predictions and the ground truth; between nonexpert anesthesiologist predictions and the ground truth | immediately after the procedure |
| Measure | Description | Time Frame |
|---|---|---|
| Accuracy, Sensitivity and specificity | Accuracy, Sensitivity and specificity of the network and nonexpert anesthesiologists | immediately after the procedure |
| The percentage of the intersection over union |
