Description

一种胰胆管的多模态成像系统及其内窥导管装置Multimodal imaging system of pancreaticobiliary duct and endoscopic catheter device 技术领域Technical field
本申请涉及医疗器械技术领域,更具体地说,涉及一种胰胆管的多模态成像系统及其内窥导管装置。The present application relates to the technical field of medical devices, and more particularly, to a multimodal imaging system for pancreaticobiliary duct and an endoscopic catheter device.
背景技术Background technique
胰腺是人体内仅次于肝的大腺体,胰管和胆管共同开口于十二指肠大乳头,胰腺分泌的胰液和肝脏产生的胆汁均通过这个开口流向十二指肠参与食物消化。然而,胰胆一旦发生恶性病变,常具有发病隐匿、进展快、复发率高、转移早的特点。由于胰胆位置较深,目前对于此类病变的早诊早治极为困难[S.Rizvi,G.J.Gores,Pathogenesis,diagnosis,and management of cholangio carcinoma,Gastroenterology 145(6)(2013)1215-29.]。The pancreas is the largest gland in the human body after the liver. The pancreatic duct and bile duct open together to the large nipple of the duodenum. The pancreatic juice secreted by the pancreas and the bile produced by the liver flow to the duodenum through this opening to participate in food digestion. However, once malignant lesions occur in the pancreas and gallbladder, they often have the characteristics of hidden disease, rapid progress, high recurrence rate, and early metastasis. Due to the deep location of the pancreas and gallbladder, it is extremely difficult for early diagnosis and treatment of such lesions [S. Rizvi, GJ Gores, Pathogenesis, diagnosis, and management of cholangio carcinoma, Gastroenterology 145(6) (2013) 1215-29.] .
目前,对胰胆恶性肿瘤缺乏高效的早期诊断方法和有效的分子标记技术,胰胆病变机理尚不明确。临床上确诊的多数已是中晚期患者,预后极差,治疗后患者的5年生存率均低于5%。胰腺癌更是被称为“癌中之王”[R.L.Siegel,K.D.Miller,A.Jemal,Cancer Statistics,2017,CA:a cancer journal for clinicians 67(1)(2017)7-30。E.R.Witkowski,J.K.Smith,J.F.Tseng,Outcomes following resection of pancreatic cancer,Journal of surgical oncology 107(1)(2013)97-103]。因此,研发具有高灵敏度、高特异性和临床适用性的早期诊疗的方法和仪器,是胰胆管癌诊疗的前瞻性需求。At present, there is a lack of efficient early diagnosis methods and effective molecular labeling techniques for pancreaticobiliary malignant tumors, and the mechanism of pancreaticobiliary lesions is still unclear. Most of the clinically diagnosed patients are already in the advanced stage, and the prognosis is extremely poor. The 5-year survival rate of patients after treatment is less than 5%. Pancreatic cancer is also known as "the king of cancer" [R.L. Siegel, K.D. Miller, A. Jemal, Cancer Statistics, 2017, CA: a cancer for clinicians 67 (1) (2017) 7-30. E.R.Witkowski,J.K.Smith,J.F.Tseng,Outcomes following resection of pancreatic cancer,Journal of surgical oncology 107(1)(2013)97-103]. Therefore, the development of methods and instruments for early diagnosis and treatment with high sensitivity, high specificity, and clinical applicability is a prospective demand for the diagnosis and treatment of pancreaticobiliary carcinoma.
本申请发明人在研究中发现,胰胆管恶性病变常起源于胰管或胆管的内皮细胞。其形成通常是一个动态过程:最初表现为胰胆管上皮细胞异型增生,进一步向胰胆管基底膜浸润生长,突破基底膜后发展为浸润性腺癌。在这一过程中,胰胆管上皮典型的组织形态学改变主要体现在结构和细胞学两方面的异常。结构上异常指正常胰胆管上皮由排列整齐的单层立方或低柱状上皮逐渐被富含黏液性胞质的高柱状细胞取代,出现上皮细胞排列 紊乱和正常细胞极性丧失;细胞学异常指细胞核不规则,染色质深染,细胞核大小不一,核质比例增高和核分裂活性增加。当异型增生的细胞继续增长,突破基底膜,浸润到器官实质中便发展为具有深度浸润性的导管腺癌。The inventors of the present application found in research that malignant lesions of pancreaticobiliary ducts often originate from endothelial cells of pancreatic ducts or bile ducts. Its formation is usually a dynamic process: initially manifested as dysplasia of pancreatic bile duct epithelial cells, which further infiltrated and grown into the pancreatic bile duct basement membrane, and developed into invasive adenocarcinoma after breaking through the basement membrane. In this process, the typical histomorphological changes of the pancreaticobiliary duct epithelium are mainly reflected in the abnormalities in both structure and cytology. Structural abnormality means that the normal pancreatic bile duct epithelium is gradually replaced by neatly arranged single-layer cubic or low columnar epithelium, which is replaced by high columnar cells rich in mucous cytoplasm. Epithelial cell arrangement disorder and normal cell polarity loss occur; cytological abnormality refers to the nucleus Irregular, deep staining of chromatin, the size of the nucleus is different, the proportion of nucleus and cytoplasm is increased and the activity of mitotic division is increased. When the dysplastic cells continue to grow, breaking through the basement membrane and infiltrating into the organ parenchyma, they develop into ductal adenocarcinoma with deep infiltration.
综上所述,对这一阶段的胰胆管的形态学异常进行准确判断是胰胆管恶性肿瘤临床诊疗的重要参考。为此,需要对胰胆管进行有效成像,以便医生能够根据所产生的医学影像并结合医学知识对该疾病进行判断。目前在对胰腺进行内窥成像时,都是利用单一模态的成像方法,如果需要进行多模态成像需要多次插入相应的内窥导管并配合不同的设备才能实现,从而增加了被诊者的痛苦。In summary, accurate judgment of pancreatic bile duct morphological abnormality at this stage is an important reference for clinical diagnosis and treatment of pancreatic bile duct malignant tumors. To this end, it is necessary to effectively image the pancreaticobiliary duct so that the doctor can judge the disease based on the generated medical image and combined with medical knowledge. At present, when performing endoscopic imaging of the pancreas, a single-modality imaging method is used. If multi-modality imaging is required, the corresponding endoscopic catheter needs to be inserted multiple times and implemented with different equipment, thereby increasing the number of patients. s pain.
