Description

A kind of Intraductal lesion imaging probe
Technical field
The invention belongs to endoscopic imaging technical fields, and in particular to a kind of Intraductal lesion imaging probe.
Background technology
Pathologic nipple discharge is one of common manifestation of breast lesion.Common disease factor have breast intraductal papilloma, Mammary duct ectasia, breast cancer, plasmacellular mastitis etc..Before fiberoptic ductoscopy technological invention and application, including ultrasound, magnetic resonance And the detection methods such as molybdenum target can not all obtain accurate diagnostic result.Fiberoptic ductoscopy is a kind of scope pickup-light source system, can To line-of-sight observation the performance of lesion in latex dust, while the biopsy of lesion can be carried out, the Lavage for Treatment of drug can also be carried out.But Existing fiberoptic ductoscopy has the following deficiencies:The first, the imaging depth of fiberoptic ductoscopy is limited.Fiberoptic ductoscopy into mirror depth by mirror body The limitation of diameter, length and curvature cannot reach the tip latex dust less than mirror body diameter.Research shows that intracanalicular papilloma Ductule and eventually last ductal epithelial cell and interstitial are often betided, and ductule and eventually last conduit often expand unobvious, to lead Cause is failed to pinpoint a disease in diagnosis.The second, latex dust spectroscopy What You See Is What You Get can not carry out lesion and wherein surrounding tissue more slice scannings, need Conduits at different levels are checked step by step, and can only obtain two dimensional image, are supplied to the diagnostic message of clinician limited.While because To check that make a definite diagnosis efficiency low, as a kind of invasive inspection, pain is larger caused by patient.Third, fiberoptic ductoscopy resolution ratio have Limit lacks the judgement to lesion tissue elasticity and functional status.
Acousto-optic endoscope as a kind of novel optical imagery that can be used for inside noninvasive hollow organ with ultrasound at As be combined hybrid imaging technique, be concerned by people in the fields such as blood vessel and stomach lesion, it mainly has following Advantage:The first, harmless.Acousto-optic imaging does not generate any ionising radiation, without using any biomarker, does not destroy yet Or change any tissue property.The second, imaging depth is deep, contrast is strong and high resolution.Acousto-optic imaging utilizes the strong of ultrasonic wave Through characteristic and tissue are anisotropic to the absorption difference of laser, realize the imaging of the high-resolution and high contrast of tissue deeper inside. Third has function imaging ability.Acousto-optic, which is imaged, can also measure the absorption coefficient of tissue different piece, and with it is corresponding Molecular structure or physiological status are associated, monitor the functional status of tissue, for example, content of hemoglobin in blood vessel, oxygen metabolism and Tumour progression etc..
The basic principle of acousto-optic endoscopic imaging technology includes mainly three steps:The first, pulse laser passes through in probe Optical element be irradiated to biological tissue;The second, biological tissue's body absorbs pulse laser fever, generates optoacoustic effect and outside spoke Penetrate ultrasonic wave;Ultrasonic detector in third, probe receives ultrasonic wave, is converted into corresponding electric signal and is transmitted in computer, Image is exported using image reconstruction algorithm.Therefore pop one's head in sensor and optical element be acousto-optic imaging core technology it One.Probe in existing acousto-optic endoscopic imaging system is mostly using the sonac based on piezoelectric sensing.It is this The usual volume of sensor is larger, and being placed in endoscope probe after miniaturization leads to sensitivity and detective bandwidth limited performance, And it is not easy the array of integrated multi-sensor, therefore limits resolution ratio, signal-to-noise ratio and the speed of imaging so that Real-time High Resolution This kind of imaging applications of rate are difficult to realize.In addition piezo ultrasound transducers is optically opaque, increases the optics member of endoscope Part design difficulty.In order to solve this problem, the various acousto-optic imagings comprising more compact, higher resolution sonac are visited Head is constantly proposed.How using the continuous resolution ratio for promoting acousto-optic imaging probe and to minimize and obtain higher-quality picture The target that always everybody pursues.
The endoscope probe design for being currently based on acousto-optic imaging technique mainly has the following two kinds:
The first design is as shown in Figure 1, come from document " A miniature all-optical photoacoustic imaging probe”Proc.of SPIE Vol.7899,78991F(2011).This acousto-optic endoscope imaging probe includes: Casing 1-1, single mode optical fiber 1-2, sound and light signal detection sensor 1-3, capsule 1-4.One end of single mode optical fiber 1-2 is fixed on casing It in 1-1, and is of coupled connections, can be rotated around fiber axis with excitation light source.The other end of single mode optical fiber 1-2 be polished to fiber axis at The reflecting surface of 45 degree of angles is placed in capsule 1-4.Pass through multicoating work on the clad of the other end of single mode optical fiber 1-2 Skill is prepared in sound and light signal detection sensor 1-3, capsule 1-4 based on Fabry Perot thin polymer film principle filled with air. Pop one's head in work when, optical excitation signal is coupled into from one end of single mode optical fiber 1-2, is occurred entirely on the reflecting surface of 45 degree of the other end Reflection, the rear portion for penetrating sound and light signal detection sensor 1-3 focus on certain point in biological tissue, and another part is reflected back To be again introduced into single mode optical fiber 1-2.The point in biological tissue absorbs the energy of exciting light, generates ultrasonic signal and is radiated sound On optical signal detection sensor 1-3, change the intensity or position phase of reflected light signal by changing its film morphology, and transmit Telegram in reply brain realizes that image is shown by image reconstruction algorithm.There are three disadvantages for this scheme:First, although the optical fiber on cylindrical surface Side wall can play the role of exciting light the convergence along fiber axis vertical direction, but its excitation density or relatively low, therefore institute The power consumption needed is larger.Second, the unspecial focal element of ultrasonic signal, therefore collection efficiency is low, loss of signal is big.The Three, the microcavity of Fabry Perot type due to quality factor it is low, the detectivity of sound and light signal is relatively low, cause image point Resolution is limited.
