Description

A kind of optical sensor system
Technical field
The present invention relates to sensor field, particularly relate to a kind of optical sensor system.
Background technology
Human and a part of animal class, it is dynamic that cerebral tissue is blood oxygen when neural activity, and the cerebral tissue image that utilizes mr imaging technique (MRI) to obtain in the blood oxygen dynamic process is called functional mri (fMRI) technology.Blood flow changes that to change general designation blood oxygen dynamic with blood oxygen concentration, when brain neurological motion, with increasing the consumption of glucose and aerobic and anaerobic metabolism accordingly.Cerebral tissue response metabolic process is the process of blood flow increasing, and 1 to 5 second delay is arranged.Blood oxygen dynamic response to peaking, produced regional aerobic hemoglobin (oxyhemoglobin, HbO in the time of 4 to 5 seconds 2), deoxyhemoglobin (blood flow changes and the blood volume-variation for deoxyhemoglobin, HbR) concentration change, promptly blood oxygen coherent signal (Blood-oxygen-level dependence, BOLD).The ultimate principle of fMRI technology is exactly to utilize the magnetic strength rate of deoxyhemoglobin different and produce T1 or T2 *The gradation of image of weighting is poor.
Existing magnetic resonance cerebral tissue function imaging exists many bottlenecks and unsolved difficult point; First; Magnetic resonance imaging obtains a sub-picture or one section dynamic video data need the sufficiently long time (common more than 1 minute), fully covers the k space or the k-t space just can reach required resolution; Yet blood oxygen of brain concentration change signal (Bold) but is instantaneous synchronous and dynamic two kinds of significant conditions.Therefore there are two defectives in it, and the first, the k spatial data of collection is non-from the same state of blood oxygen of brain concentration change signal (Bold), can't satisfy the requirement of temporal resolution.Second; At present clinical is to use planar pulse echo fast imaging pulse trains such as (EPI) to be reduced to the picture required time with the most frequently used method of research magnetic resonance functional imaging; Its problem is, has the remarkable shortcoming that anamorphose and spatial resolution are low, signal to noise ratio is low, and; Temporal resolution low (greater than 1 second) still can't obtain the high time resolution image.
The clinical meaning of cerebral tissue function imaging is very important; Because the imaging of magnetic resonance cerebral tissue function exists many bottlenecks and unsolved difficult point; The optical fault camera technique is used for cerebral function imaging and has received the research worker concern; (Joseph P.
