Description

Technical Field
The invention relates to the field of photoacoustic imaging research, in particular to a photoacoustic three-dimensional imaging device and method capable of simultaneously carrying out multipoint excitation and matching on received light.
Background
Photoacoustic imaging is a non-invasive imaging technique combining optical imaging and ultrasound imaging, which has the characteristics of high contrast, high resolution of optical imaging and high penetration of ultrasound imaging. The photoacoustic imaging is based on the fundamental principle of photo-generated sound, when short-pulse laser light is irradiated on biological tissue, the biological tissue absorbs pulse energy and expands rapidly to generate ultrasound, namely photoacoustic signals, and images reflecting biological tissue structure and function information can be reconstructed according to the photoacoustic signals. Photoacoustic imaging overcomes some of the disadvantages of conventional imaging approaches, such as: compared with Optical Coherence Tomography (OCT), the measurement depth of OCT is limited to be a shallow layer in millimeter order due to strong scattering of tissue optical property, and the photoacoustic imaging technology can reach centimeter order; compared with pure ultrasonic imaging, the contrast of ultrasonic imaging in a region with a small acoustic impedance difference is low, and photoacoustic imaging utilizes the absorption difference of different tissues to reconstruct an image with high contrast, so that the rapid development of photoacoustic imaging has a promoting effect on the development of the field of biomedical imaging.
For photoacoustic imaging, it is important to improve imaging speed to monitor dynamic physiological processes in real time, but limited by the repetition frequency of pulse laser and the speed of mechanical scanning, most of the currently adopted imaging modes of single optical focus and single acoustic focus are difficult to realize high-speed photoacoustic three-dimensional imaging. The patent application with the application number of 201010139117.X discloses a rapid three-dimensional photoacoustic imaging system and method based on an area array ultrasonic detector, the invention establishes a non-scanning photoacoustic imaging system based on the area array detector to realize rapid three-dimensional photoacoustic imaging, but the system has the defect that an excitation light source is non-focused laser, so the resolution of the system is determined by acoustic resolution, but is limited by the array element size and the array element interval of the area array ultrasonic detector, and the system is difficult to realize high-resolution microscopic photoacoustic imaging. The patent application No. 201110171027.3 discloses a fast photoacoustic three-dimensional imaging device, which avoids the use of a mechanical scanning device by controlling the on-off of each microlens in an optical mask through a programmable logic array module, but the utilization rate of a laser source is extremely low because most microlenses are in an off state in the working state of the device, complicated circuit control is required for excitation of the light source and acquisition of photoacoustic signals, and the positions and time sequences of excitation and acquisition are strictly unified, so that the whole hardware and program are complicated and inconvenient for practical application.
