Description

A kind of high speed Noncontact optoacoustic imaging based on optical path modulation combination sensitivity compensation System
Technical field
The present invention relates to sports equipment field more particularly to a kind of high speed based on optical path modulation combination sensitivity compensation are non- Contact photoacoustic imaging system.
Background technique
Photoacoustic imaging is a kind of imaging mode of Noninvasive, it combines the high contrast of pure optical image technology and pure The advantages that high-resolution of ultrasonic imaging technique, high-penetration depth.Photoacoustic imaging using biological tissue light absorption otherness into Row imaging, it can be provided to people about the structure of biological tissue, metabolism, function, molecule comparison, Hemodynamics and base Because of the relevant information of the various dimensions such as expression, a kind of novel imaging method is provided for field of biomedicine.
Currently, contactless optical acoustic imaging can be divided into according to the difference of the photoacoustic signal detection mode in photoacoustic imaging With contact photoacoustic imaging.
Contact photoacoustic imaging is the detection method based on acoustic pressure, is mainly carried out using PZT and PVDF PZT (piezoelectric transducer) The detection of photoacoustic signal.Contact type measurement detector and sample surfaces will be close to.In addition, it is also necessary to consider energy converter and sample room Acoustic impedance match problem.This is because, due to sample surfaces injustice, causing to press when PZT (piezoelectric transducer) and sample are directly contacted There can be air layer between electric transducer and sample.The acoustic impedance very different of air and energy converter, ultrasonic wave is in two media Interface on can generate strong reflection photoacoustic signal is caused to be decayed.Therefore, contact type measurement is needed using couplant.With sample The signal detection inconvenience for contacting, the two features of couplant coupled signal being needed to make contact optoacoustic, limits its extensive use.
Contactless optical acoustic imaging is the detection method based on optical interference, passes through sample table caused by detection photoacoustic signal The vibration velocity in face or displacement carry out photoacoustic signal detection.It solves the problems, such as acoustic coupling medium in principle, expands light The application range of acoustic imaging.Heterodyne method is a kind of method of interferometry, it makes itself and survey by the frequency of change reference signal It measures and generates a difference on the frequency between signal, after reference signal and measuring signal interference, phase tune is contained in interference signal phase Measured phase can be obtained by carrying out demodulation to interference signal in item (carrier wave) processed and tested quantifier.But it is because of structure It is complicated therefore be not widely applied.Homodyne interferometer is fairly simple compared with heterodyne ineterferometer, it is easy to accomplish Noncontact optoacoustic signal Acquisition.But in order to obtain peak response, zero balancing needs the triggering collection photoacoustic signal when interference signal crosses zero curve. Interference signal is crossed zero curve and is determined by outside environmental elements, unpredictable, therefore photoacoustic imaging speed is slower.
Entitled " In vivo photoacoustic imaging of blood vessels using a homodyne The periodical of interferometer with zero-crossing triggering " disclose describe it is a kind of based on zero balancing Noncontact optoacoustic imaging system, this method are based on Michelson's interferometer, using zero balancing realize the excitation of photoacoustic signal with Processing.The systematic comparison is simple, and preferably still acquisition speed is excessively slow for system sensitivity and imaging resolution, and practicability is poor.
Entitled " Phase sensitive absolute amplitude detection of surface The periodical of vibrations using homodyneinterferometry without active stabilization " is public Open describe it is a kind of based on zero balancing go forward side by side line sensitivity compensation surface vibration detection method.This method passes through measurement vibration letter The actual measurement amplitude of phase locating for number, computing system transient sensitivity and compensation vibration signal, because being acquired without zero cross fired. But this method fails to consider the problem that low sensitivity region (close to 0) Calculation of Sensitivity is big by noise jamming, in the region It is easy to cause overcompensation or undercompensation, leads to image quality decrease.
Summary of the invention
In order to solve the above-mentioned technical problem, the object of the present invention is to provide one kind to be based on optical path modulation combination sensitivity compensation High speed Noncontact optoacoustic imaging system, guarantee image matter, improve acquisition speed.
In order to solve the above technical problems, the present invention adopts the following technical scheme:
A kind of high speed Noncontact optoacoustic imaging system based on optical path modulation combination sensitivity compensation, including lasing fluorescence portion Divide, reference arm, sample end part, detect end part and data processing section;

The interference signal that two output ends of the second circulator (7) and third circulator (8) export in b, step a is sent to flat It weighs detector (12), two channels of high-speed data acquisition DAQ (13) equipment, the acquisition of this data is separately input to after photoelectric conversion For card by AO module (15) trigger data acquisition, a channel of DAQ high-speed data acquisition card (13) directly acquires balance detection The signal of device (12) output is used for subsequent PA sensitivity compensation, and another acquisition channel is by utilizing high-pass filter (14) The extraction of high frequency photoacoustic signal is carried out to the signal of balanced detector output (12);For acquiring every time, AO module (15) is continuous 3 pulse signals at equal intervals are issued, three pulse signal effects, which are respectively as follows:, repeatedly to be triggered and excited more to laser (16) A equally spaced photoacoustic signal and first pulse signal trigger data acquisition card so that data collecting card is excited after to three Three equally spaced photoacoustic signals that pulse is excited carry out photoacoustic signal acquisition;
C excites optoacoustic: in the laser irradiation to sample that laser (16) projects, three times to same point excitation, sample absorbs laser Photoacoustic signal is generated after energy and causes tissue vibration, thus generates micro-displacement, micro-displacement is passed to liquid table by liquid level Face is simultaneously amplified, and the detection light in step a detects photoacoustic signal by detecting the micro-displacement of liquid surface, wherein laser It is photosynthetic through reflecting mirror (17), the first focusing lens (18), the first condenser lens (19), dichroic mirror (21) and the sample in detection light It is light beam-to guarantee that excitation and detection are same position, is focused by reflecting mirror (22), X-Y scanning galvanometer (23) second Lens (28) focus on sample surfaces to excite photoacoustic signal;
D, signal acquisition: signal acquisition is controlled by AO module (15), and AO module (15) is simultaneously to laser (16) and DAQ high speed number It carries out while triggering according to capture card (13), and then accomplish the Quick Acquisition of multiple signals;
The collected data of e, DAQ data collecting card finally transfer to data processing section to carry out data processing.
