Description

A kind of fatty liver detecting system based on ultrasonic attenuation coefficient
Technical field
The fatty liver detecting system based on ultrasonic attenuation coefficient that the present invention relates to a kind of, the system particularly relate to ultrasound Method detects fatty attenuation coefficient to judge a kind of system of liver fat degree.
Background technology
Fatty liver (fatty liver) refer to due to various reasons caused by the excessive lesion of fat accumulation in liver cell, It is a kind of common pathology of livers rather than a kind of independent disease.Fatty liver disease is just seriously threatening the health of compatriots, at To be only second to the second largest hepatopathy of virus hepatitis, incidence is constantly increasing, and age of onset rejuvenation increasingly.Normal person liver Contain a small amount of fat, such as triglycerides, phosphatide, glycolipid and cholesterol in tissue, weight be about liver weight 3%~ 5%, if intrahepatic fat accumulation is too many, more than liver weight 5% or histologically 50% or more liver cell has steatosis When, so that it may it is known as fatty liver.Its clinical manifestation less serious case is asymptomatic, and the severe one state of an illness is violent.In general, fatty liver category invertibity disease Disease, early diagnosing and treating in time can often restore normal.
Making a definite diagnosis for previous fatty liver must rely on needle biopsy of liver, and this detection methods may be because of the generation of complication Patient is often enabled to be difficult to receive.Apparent fatty liver is not difficult to obtain diagnosis according to ultrasound diagnosis, but morning, mid-term image not very allusion quotation Type, although having, time point is finer and closely woven, does not occur the case where obvious Blood vessel pattern and far field echo are weakened, only according to Discernable by eye is easily influenced by subjective factor, wants to make a definite diagnosis extremely difficult.
By area of computer aided ultrasound hepatic sclerosis detection device come quantitative detection hepatic fat content, it is used as diagnosing A kind of detection means of fatty liver disease.The change of matter necessarily leads to quantitative change, and attenuation coefficient measurement is a dosing process, decaying The height of coefficient directly reflects fat content.So attenuation coefficient can be quantified as one of Diagnosis of Fatty liver and indexing Reference index.
Using attenuation coefficient is measured, it can effectively reflect its specific structure very sensitively according to tissue quality, density Change, the case where to judge lesion, the deficiency for making up diasonograph.For large-scale crowd fatty liver screening with And diagnosis, the treatment of mild fatty liver provide a kind of simple, accurate and effective diagnostic method.
Invention content
The present invention is a kind of fatty liver detecting system based on ultrasonic attenuation coefficient, belongs to signal processing and liver decaying system Number technical field.Ultrasonic examination is non-invasive with its, without radiation insult, repeatability, it is cheap the advantages that, become primary dcreening operation fat The prefered method of liver, so fatty attenuation coefficient can diagnose the content of liver fat as quantitative target.
Different degrees of Patients with Fatty Liver hepatic fat content is measured, slave computer acquisition ultrasound echo signal is uploaded to upper Machine first carries out gain to original signal, then carries out bandpass filtering to signal, removes interference noise, utilizes Hilbert transform Envelope detection is carried out to filtering signal, then logarithmic transformation is carried out to the signal after detection, obtain doing after data smothing filtering and It is down-sampled, linear fit is carried out to all continuity points and seeks straight slope, finally acquires the attenuation coefficient of corresponding data, the calculating Journey measures fat content in liver by calculating attenuation degree of the ultrasound echo signal in human liver's fat, can be used for surveying It measures the attenuation coefficient of liver organization and detects the degree of fatty liver.
First aspect of the present invention it is proposed a kind of logarithmic transformation method for data compression, measures many cases difference journeys Spend the hepatic fat content of Patients with Fatty Liver or body mould, the ultrasound echo signal that acquisition centre frequency is f, to ultrasound echo signal It carries out gain and obtains original signal, to going the signal after gain to carry out bandpass filtering, to remove interference noise, then to signal Envelope detection is carried out using Hilbert method, Log logarithmic transformations are done after modulus.
Another aspect of the present invention, it is proposed that a kind of smoothing method for data filtering, for every in data-signal One row, do the smoothing processing of current point and preceding N-1 points since each column N points, the signal after obtaining smoothly.
Another aspect of the invention, it is proposed that a method of it is down-sampled for data, to it is above-mentioned it is smooth after signal into Row down-sampled, each row in the number of winning the confidence, since starting point, every M points take a little obtain it is down-sampled after signal.
Fatty attenuation coefficient calculates simple in the present invention, can accomplish to measure in real time, assist existing B ultrasound equipment, curing There is good behaviour in institute, medical center field application;The measurement of fatty attenuation coefficient is acquired by LeScan hepatic sclerosis detectors Ultrasound echo signal carries out calculating verification, and result of calculation has very high accuracy;Ultrasonic examination is non-invasive with its, is damaged without radiation The advantages that hindering, is repeatable, cheap, becomes the prefered method of primary dcreening operation fatty liver, so fatty attenuation coefficient can conduct Quantitative target diagnoses the content of liver fat.
Description of the drawings
Attached drawing is used for providing further understanding the embodiment of the present invention herein, constitutes a part for the embodiment of the present invention, But it is not limited to the present embodiment.In the accompanying drawings:
It is the overall flow figure of ultrasound echo signal processing of the present invention shown in Fig. 1
It is the flow chart that signal of the present invention carries out logarithmic transformation shown in Fig. 2
