Description

A kind of pin cutter of compatible magnetic resonance elastography
Technical field
The present invention relates to a kind of medical apparatus and instruments, be specifically related to the pin cutter of a kind of compatible magnetic resonance (MR) elastogram.
Background technology
Pin cutter therapy is a kind of new Chinese traditional treatment technology, is the closure lysis between operation method and non-operative treatment.In the treatment of pin cutter therapy, the doctor uses the soft tissue around the surgical knife excision pathological changes that is called the pin cutter, to recover the dynamic equilibrium of human body.Verified, pin cutter therapy is the effective therapy of muscular tone of in some challenge disease, loosening.Employed needle set is the pin cutter in the pin cutter therapy, is processed by metal material usually, and its shape is slightly different according to purposes with length, and length is generally about 10-15cm, and diameter is that 1-2mm does not wait.The pin cutter generally includes pin cutter tail, pin cutter hub and pin cutter head three parts.
Because the pin cutter this closed operation of performing the operation, the doctor can't directly see focus in operative process, thereby the operation of pin cutter needs the doctor to have abundant dissect physiology to gain knowledge and clinical experience.For auxiliary doctor carries out visual operation, thereby reduce the risk of pin cutter operation, the pin cutter modus operandi of nuclear magnetic resonance guiding becomes a kind of important development trend of pin cutter medical domain.Simultaneously, because elasticity is the important physical of in-vivo tissue, normal structure is compared with pathological tissue, and there is bigger difference in both elasticity.Thereby; On the basis of magnetic resonance imaging system, increase the stimulator that produces mechanical vibration; By the mechanical attributes of magnetic resonance imaging system measuring body inner tissue under the outside stimulus effect that stimulator produced; Be the magnetic resonance elastography technology, diagnosis and treatment in the operation of pin cutter are had potential positive role.
Magnetic resonance elastography utilizes magnetic resonance to study the elastic information of in-vivo tissue or pathological changes, thereby can measure the mechanical attributes of tissue quantitatively.Specifically; Magnetic resonance elastography is to utilize special stimulator to produce mechanical vibration to act on in-vivo tissue, produces low-frequency shearing wave thus and propagates in organizing in vivo, and propagation of shear causes the particle displacement of in-vivo tissue; Obtain the MR phase image by magnetic resonance imaging system then; Draw the scattergram of the coefficient of elasticity of each point in the tissue based on this, thereby the elasticity after detection tissue or pathological changes are upset changes, the abnormality of discovery tissue such as tumor etc.
In the current magnetic resonance elastography technology, stimulator is positioned at human body surface, and the mechanical vibration that produced put on body surface.Yet the mechanical vibration that applied only are confined to body surface, just significantly decay before the degree of depth tissue in arriving body.Therefore, when this magnetic resonance elastography technology is applied to pin cutter therapy, be difficult to accurately measure the mechanical attributes of in-vivo tissue.
In the prior art, two types stimulator is arranged to the magnetic resonance elastography of degree of depth tissue.
A kind of is disclosed among the patent application WO2008/067053, and the biopsy needle that uses electromechanical to drive produces the required mechanical vibration of magnetic resonance elastography.Yet when this magnetic resonance elastography technology was applied to pin cutter therapy, biopsy needle can produce surgical operation with relevant electromechanical driver and disturb.And the stimulus of this biopsy needle still is positioned at human body surface, and the mechanical vibration that produced still can produce decay by a relatively large margin before the degree of depth tissue in arriving body.
Another kind is disclosed in patent application US2003/0065267A1, in conduit or puncture needle, uses sonic transducer and radio-frequency coil to carry out magnetic resonance elastography.But this magnetic resonance elastography technology can produce artefact in magnetic resonance elastography.
Summary of the invention

In a preferred embodiment of the invention; The width of said piezoelectric sender on the length direction of said pin cutter can be between 0.5-2mm; The surface of said piezoelectric sender and pin cutter hub surface maintain an equal level; Thereby can produce the mechanical vibration of 100-200Hz, can satisfy the needs that in-vivo tissue carried out magnetic resonance elastography basically.The distance of said piezoelectric sender and said pin cutter head can be 1cm, can when not influencing the operation of pin cutter, carry out the magnetic resonance elastography of degree of depth tissue in the body.
In a preferred embodiment of the invention, said piezoelectric sender can comprise supporting layer, is positioned at the piezoelectric element on the said supporting layer and is positioned at the wearing plate on the said piezoelectric element.Said supporting layer can be processed by epoxide resin material, and thickness is between 0.2-0.3mm.Said piezoelectric element can be piezoceramic material, and thickness is between 0.1-0.2mm.Said wearing plate can be processed by silastic material, and thickness is between 0.05-0.1mm.
In a preferred embodiment of the invention, said pin cutter hub can be processed by the paramagnetic metal material, is coated with diamagnetism metal material coating on the said paramagnetic metal material.Said paramagnetic metal material can be platinum, magnesium, aluminum or titanium.Said diamagnetism metal material can be gold, silver or bismuth.Therefore; When carrying out magnetic resonance elastography; Get into the pin cutter hub of imaging region and the diamagnetism metal material coating on the pin cutter head and can offset the magnetization of externally-applied magnetic field the paramagnetic metal material; Make paramagnetic material can not cause the distortion of field of magnetic resonance equipment, also can in scanogram, not produce artefact simultaneously.And; Because paramagnetic metal material and diamagnetism metal material all are to be made up of metallic element; Therefore can guarantee the mechanical property of pin cutter hub and pin cutter head, thereby similar physical characteristic is provided for traditional needle cutter, to satisfy the requirement of pin cutter operation.
It is thus clear that; Pin cutter provided by the invention; Magnetic resonance elastography in the time of can both carrying out pin cutter surgical operation to degree of depth tissue in the body and person of modern times surface, thus the mechanical attributes of in-vivo tissue in pin cutter surgical procedures, accurately obtained, as the operating reference of pin cutter.
On the other hand; The pin cutter of compatible magnetic resonance elastography provided by the invention has the function of surgical knife and magnetic resonance elastography stimulator, therefore in the nuclear magnetic resonance process; Having avoided biopsy needle with relevant electromechanical driver surgical operation to be produced disturbs; Also avoid sonic transducer and radio-frequency coil in magnetic resonance elastography, to produce artefact, and do not needed extra mechanical vibrator generator, thereby can reduce the treatment cost.
On the whole, the pin cutter of compatible magnetic resonance elastography provided by the invention can improve the effectiveness and the safety of pin cutter treatment.
