Fig. 1 is a schematic structural diagram illustrating an example of an ultrasonic white hair treatment apparatus to which an embodiment of the present invention is applied.

As shown in fig. 1, the ultrasonic white hair treatment apparatus 100 includes a control device 110 and at least one ultrasonic transducer (e.g., an ultrasonic transducer 121, an ultrasonic transducer 123.. the ultrasonic transducer 12n), and the control device 110 can be communicatively interacted with each ultrasonic transducer to achieve the target of ultrasonic treatment. In some examples of the embodiments of the present application, the control device 110 may output a drive signal or an operation mode instruction to the ultrasound transducer to cause the ultrasound transducer to output a corresponding ultrasound signal or to perform a corresponding operation mode (e.g., an ultrasound imaging mode or an ultrasound stimulation mode).

In one example of an embodiment of the present application, the number of ultrasound transducers communicatively interacting with the control device 110 is a single, e.g., ultrasound transducer 121. Specifically, the control device 110 may send a first driving instruction to the ultrasound transducer 121 to cause the ultrasound transducer 121 to execute the ultrasound imaging mode, and the processor may also send a second driving instruction to the ultrasound transducer 121 to cause the ultrasound transducer 121 to execute the ultrasound stimulation mode. In this way, the ultrasonic transducer 121 can switch the operation mode according to different driving instructions.

In another example of an embodiment of the present application, the number of ultrasound transducers communicatively interacting with the control device 110 is multiple, such as ultrasound transducer 121 and ultrasound transducer 123. Specifically, the control device 110 may send a first driving instruction to the ultrasound transducer 121 to cause the ultrasound transducer 121 to execute the ultrasound imaging mode, and send a second driving instruction to the ultrasound transducer 123 to cause the ultrasound transducer 123 to execute the ultrasound stimulation mode.

In some preferred embodiments, there are a plurality of selectable ultrasound transducers for performing the ultrasound stimulation mode that are communicatively interactive with the control device 110, and the model of each ultrasound transducer may be different from each other, such as linear, circular, arc-area, planar, multi-area ultrasound transducers, which can meet the personalized ultrasound stimulation requirements.

In addition, the ultrasonic diagnostic transducer used for performing the ultrasonic imaging mode may be diversified in style, and is not limited to a MEMS (micro-electro mechanical systems) ultrasonic transducer, a linear array, a circular array, an arc array, a planar array, or a flexible ultrasonic transducer, etc., so as to meet the personalized ultrasonic diagnostic requirement.

Fig. 2 is a flowchart illustrating an example of a workflow of an ultrasonic white hair treatment apparatus according to an embodiment of the present application, and the method may be performed by a processor apparatus or a controller apparatus (e.g., the control device 110 in fig. 1) interacting with each ultrasonic transducer in communication.

As shown in fig. 2, in step 210, a first ultrasound transducer of the at least one ultrasound transducer is driven for ultrasound imaging, acquiring a first scalp image of the target scalp. Here, the first scalp image may be acquired based on the first ultrasonic signal. Illustratively, the first ultrasonic transducer in the ultrasonic imaging mode outputs a first ultrasonic signal to acquire a scalp image, and transmits the acquired scalp image to the control device 110.

In step 220, ultrasound parameters are determined from the first scalp image. In one example, the ultrasound parameters may be parameters of various ultrasound waves, such as ultrasound intensity, ultrasound center frequency, ultrasound duty cycle, PRF (pulse repetition frequency), ultrasound duration, and the like; in another example, the ultrasound parameters may also be a combination of parameters of various ultrasound waves and other auxiliary parameters related to the ultrasound intervention operation (e.g., transducer positioning information).

For example, the first scalp image may be subjected to pixel analysis to obtain a scalp state (e.g., white hair state, scalp hair follicle state, etc.) corresponding to the target scalp, and then the ultrasound parameters corresponding to the scalp state may be determined.

In step 230, a second ultrasound transducer of the at least one ultrasound transducer is driven to output an ultrasound stimulation signal according to the ultrasound parameters. Here, the ultrasonic stimulation signal is used to stimulate the target scalp.

In one example of the embodiment of the present application, the second ultrasonic transducer may be the same ultrasonic transducer as the first ultrasonic transducer, and is switched by a mode driving instruction output by the control device. In another example of an embodiment of the present application, the second ultrasound transducer may be another ultrasound transducer of the plurality of ultrasound transducers different from the first ultrasound transducer. In connection with the example as in fig. 1, the number of ultrasound transducers communicatively interacting with the control device 110 for performing the ultrasound stimulation mode may be multiple (121, 123-12 n), and a target ultrasound transducer matching the ultrasound parameter may be determined from the ultrasound transducers.

It should be understood that the range of values of the ultrasound parameter corresponding to different ultrasound transducers may also be different. For example, the shapes of the ultrasonic stimulation areas of different ultrasonic transducers may be different from each other (e.g., linear array, circular array, arc array, etc.), the ranges of the ultrasonic frequencies of different ultrasonic transducers may also be different, and so on. Therefore, the second adaptive ultrasonic transducer can be selected according to the ultrasonic parameters corresponding to the first scalp image, so as to guarantee the effect of ultrasonic stimulation.

In some embodiments, the at least one ultrasonic transducer in the ultrasonic white hair treatment device may include a wearable ultrasonic transducer and a handheld ultrasonic transducer. Therefore, the ultrasonic intervention process of turning white hair into black hair can be conveniently carried out comprehensively or locally, the ultrasonic intervention experience of a user is improved, and the aim of efficient and stable ultrasonic intervention is fulfilled.

Fig. 2 shows a flow chart of an example of determining ultrasound parameters from a first scalp image according to an embodiment of the present application.

In step 210, an image region to be treated is determined according to the gray value of each pixel point of the first scalp image and the preset gray value range. Here, the gray value of each pixel point in the image region to be treated belongs to the gray value range, the region on the target scalp corresponding to the image region to be treated is the white hair region, for example, the gray value range may represent the gray value of the image pixel corresponding to the white hair or the gray hair.

According to the embodiment of the application, the white hair area is analyzed in the scalp image according to the gray value of the pixel, and preparation is made for the purpose of realizing the conversion from white hair to black hair through ultrasonic intervention in the subsequent ultrasonic stimulation operation. It should be understood that the white hair region may include not only a pixel region corresponding to white hair but also a pixel region corresponding to gray hair, whereby an ultrasonic intervention process for white hair and gray hair may be implemented.

In step 220, region attribute information for the image region to be treated is determined. Here, the region attribute information includes region size information and region dispersion degree information, and the size of the white hair region can be reflected by the region size information.

In addition, the distribution of the white hair region can be reflected by the region distribution degree information. Specifically, each target pixel constituting the image region to be treated may be a pixel which is continuously distributed, and accordingly, the image region to be treated may be a single region. In addition, each target pixel composing the image region to be treated may also be different pixels distributed dispersedly, and accordingly, the image region to be treated may be a plurality of regions distributed dispersedly, and at this time, the corresponding region dispersion degree information may be determined by the dispersion condition of the plurality of regions.

In step 230, ultrasound parameters are determined according to the region attribute information and the gray values of the pixel points in the image region to be treated. In one example, the gray value 0 may represent pure black, the gray value 255 may represent pure white, and the gray value may be directly used to represent the white degree of the white hair region, for example, the larger the gray value is, the higher the white degree is.

It should be noted that, if the region size information and the region dispersion degree information are larger, or the gray value of each pixel point in the image region to be treated is larger, it is indicated that a corresponding higher-degree ultrasound intervention process needs to be performed on the white hair region, and an ultrasound signal with a larger corresponding ultrasound stimulation degree (for example, with a larger intensity or a longer time) can be determined, so as to ensure a better ultrasound stimulation effect.

Regarding the implementation details of step 230, in some embodiments, the white hair degree may also be determined according to the gray value of each pixel point in the image region to be treated and a preset corresponding relationship. Illustratively, there may be a correspondence between a plurality of white hair degrees and corresponding gray value ranges (for example, gray value ranges 0 to 100 may correspond to low white hair degrees, and gray value ranges 101 to 255 may represent high white hair degrees), and the corresponding white hair degrees may be obtained through a gray value comparison operation. Furthermore, the ultrasound parameters may be determined based on the white hair degree and the region attribute information.

In some examples of embodiments of the present application, the respective ultrasound transducers each have a different ultrasound stimulation area, and the ultrasound stimulation area of the second ultrasound transducer is greater than or equal to the area of the white hair region. Thereby, the stimulation area of the second ultrasound transducer can cover the image area to be treated with little or no intervention in other normal areas.

It should be noted that the health of the scalp hair follicles is also a major factor causing the appearance of white hair symptoms in the user. In some examples of embodiments of the present application, the health status of scalp hair follicles may be comprehensively considered during the ultrasound intervention, for example, the hair follicle atrophy status may correspond to ultrasound parameters with a higher ultrasound stimulation degree (e.g., a greater ultrasound intensity), thereby improving the ultrasound intervention effect.

Specifically, the hair follicle status information of the white hair region can be determined from the image region to be treated. Here, the hair follicle state information is first state information indicating that the white hair region is in a hair follicle atrophy state, or second state information indicating that the white hair region is in a non-hair follicle atrophy state. For example, the pixel analysis may be performed on the image region to be treated to count the ratio of the number of atrophic hair follicles in the white hair region to the total number of hair follicles, so as to obtain corresponding hair follicle status information.

In some examples of the embodiments of the present application, the image region to be treated may be input to the deep learning model, so as to determine the hair follicle state information corresponding to the white hair region by the deep learning model. Here, each training sample in the training sample set of the deep learning model may be a scalp hair follicle photograph in which a corresponding scalp hair follicle state (e.g., a healthy state or an atrophic state) is labeled, whereby the corresponding hair follicle state can be determined efficiently and accurately by image recognition by way of machine learning.

Further, in the process of determining the ultrasound parameters, the ultrasound parameters may be determined according to the region attribute information, the gray values of the respective pixel points in the image region to be treated, and the saccular state information.

Illustratively, the scalp state grade corresponding to the white hair region can be determined according to the region attribute information, the gray value of each pixel point in the image region to be treated and the hair follicle state information, and the ultrasonic parameters corresponding to the scalp state grade are determined. For example, there may be an ultrasound parameter map having a mapping relationship between different ultrasound parameters and corresponding scalp state levels, such that the control device may determine the applicable ultrasound parameters by table lookup.

In combination with the application scenario, the ultrasonic wave emitting sequence of the ultrasonic transducer for ultrasonic stimulation can be individually designed according to the hair follicle state information, the white hair degree and the range of the user, so as to realize corresponding ultrasonic energy distribution, stimulation duration and the like. Illustratively, different ultrasound emission sequences can be achieved by varying ultrasound parameters (intensity, duty cycle, pulse repetition frequency, duration, etc.) to improve the degree of white hair for different users. If the diagnosis result shows that the hair follicle atrophy is serious, the white hair area is large, and meanwhile, the condition of multi-area dispersion exists, the ultrasonic transducer with the corresponding ultrasonic wave with the large central frequency and the large coverage area can be selected, and ultrasonic intervention can be carried out by using high modulation energy. Further, a follow-up review is performed by the first ultrasound transducer in the ultrasound imaging mode after the beginning of the ultrasound intervention cycle to calibrate the ultrasound intervention protocol of the second ultrasound transducer in the ultrasound stimulation mode.

By the embodiment of the application, the region attribute information, the region pixel gray information and the saccular state information corresponding to the image region to be treated are used as the evaluation indexes of the parameters of the ultrasonic wave for stimulation, the working parameters of the ultrasonic wave signal can be self-adaptively adjusted according to the actual conditions of different users, and the personalized ultrasonic intervention process is realized.

FIG. 3 shows a flow diagram of an example of updating ultrasound parameters according to an embodiment of the present application.

As shown in fig. 3, in step 310, after the second ultrasonic transducer stimulates the white hair region, the first ultrasonic transducer is driven to acquire a second scalp image of the target scalp.

Illustratively, after stimulating the white hair region with the second ultrasonic transducer in conformity with the preset stimulation condition, the first ultrasonic transducer is again utilized to acquire a second scalp image of the target scalp. Here, the preset stimulation condition may represent a preset stimulation period (e.g., a number of ultrasound intervention days) or a preset number of stimulation times, and the processor may recall the first ultrasound transducer to acquire the image of the target scalp after the preset stimulation condition is satisfied.

In step 320, the ultrasound parameters are updated based on the second scalp image. For example, the ultrasound parameters may be determined from the second scalp image and replaced with the ultrasound parameters corresponding to the first scalp image.

In step 330, a third ultrasound transducer of the at least one ultrasound transducer is driven to output an ultrasound stimulation signal according to the updated ultrasound parameters.

For example, when the hair follicle status information changes significantly, for example, a relatively large number of atrophic hair follicles in the white hair region are converted into healthy hair follicles, the stimulation level of the ultrasonic signal can be reduced. In this way, in the process of stimulating the white hair region by using the ultrasonic signals, the ultrasonic stimulation scheme can be adjusted (i.e. the ultrasonic parameters are updated) according to the feedback result of the scalp state, and the self-adaptive full-flow ultrasonic intervention process is realized.

It should be noted that the third ultrasonic transducer may be an ultrasonic transducer adapted to the updated ultrasonic parameters, and may also be the same or different ultrasonic transducer as the second ultrasonic transducer.

In some application scenarios, the ultrasound parameter or parameters to which the ultrasound transducer is adapted may be fixed, such as the ultrasound center frequency. For example, when it is determined from the second scalp image that the center frequency of the ultrasonic wave needs to be changed, the ultrasonic transducer used for the stimulation operation may be adaptively replaced among the plurality of ultrasonic transducers arranged in advance, so as to achieve a better ultrasonic intervention effect.

According to the embodiment of the application, corresponding ultrasonic parameters for stimulation are selected in a self-adaptive mode according to the analysis and evaluation results of the first scalp image and the second scalp image, and preparation is made for achieving the purpose of changing white hair into black hair through ultrasonic intervention, so that when the tissue is regulated and controlled by the ultrasonic transducer, the purposes of increasing hair medulla and melanin particles in cortex and changing white hair into black hair can be achieved.

Fig. 4 shows a flowchart of an example of the control device driving the transducer to output the ultrasonic stimulation signal according to an embodiment of the present application. At this time, the ultrasound parameters may include transducer positioning information.

In step 410, a second ultrasonic transducer is driven to a target location corresponding to the transducer positioning information. In one example, the control device is provided with corresponding positioning drive structures, which can position the transducer to a corresponding target position. In another example, the control device may also send transducer positioning information to the transducer positioning system to enable the transducer positioning system to automatically position the second transducer to the target location.

In step 420, the second ultrasonic transducer at the target location is controlled to output an ultrasonic stimulation signal.

In combination with the application scenario of the embodiment of the application, the control device drives the first transducer to acquire the first scalp image, the first scalp image can be analyzed to determine the position information of the white hair region needing ultrasonic intervention, and then the control device can position the second transducer according to the position of the white hair region, so that the second transducer can output the second ultrasonic signal to perform ultrasonic stimulation on the target region.

Through this application embodiment, carry out the analysis to the scalp image to automatic positioning is used for carrying out the second ultrasonic transducer of supersound stimulation operation, need not to carry out manual operation to ultrasonic transducer, can avoid the error that manual operation transducer leads to, has improved the accuracy of ultrasonic intervention.

Fig. 5 is a schematic structural diagram illustrating an example of an ultrasonic transducer in an ultrasonic white hair treatment device according to an embodiment of the present application.

As shown in fig. 5, the first ultrasonic transducer 510 may acquire a scalp image of the head of the user by using an ultrasonic imaging technique, the control device may evaluate a scalp state corresponding to the scalp image, and the second ultrasonic transducer 520 may perform ultrasonic stimulation on a corresponding scalp position by using an ultrasonic stimulation technique. Therefore, the purpose of changing white hair into black hair is achieved based on ultrasonic regulation, melanocyte tyrosine in hair follicles is activated to different degrees by adjusting ultrasonic parameters such as ultrasonic intensity and energy according to an evaluation result, the pigment content in melanosomes is increased, the problem of white hair (or gray hair) to different degrees is further improved, and the purpose of efficient and stable ultrasonic intervention is achieved.

In addition, the

ultrasound transducers

510 and 520 may be wearable or handheld, which may facilitate the implementation of ultrasound diagnostic procedures and ultrasound interventional procedures, improving the user experience. Further, the user's head may be coated with a coupling fluid medium to ensure the effect of the ultrasonic intervention.

It should be noted that, since the hair follicle states, the white hair degrees and the ranges of different users are different, in the embodiment of the present application, an ultrasound-based method for changing white hair into black hair is provided, before performing ultrasound intervention, health conditions such as hair follicles of a user and the like and the white hair degrees and the ranges of the hair follicles of the user can be detected and evaluated by using the first ultrasound transducer 510 based on an ultrasound imaging technology, and then an adaptive personalized ultrasound intervention scheme is determined according to an evaluation result, for example, ultrasound waves for stimulation in a selected matching frequency band are selected. Furthermore, during the ultrasound intervention, a second ultrasound transducer 520 is used and the intervention is performed with corresponding ultrasound parameters (e.g. ultrasound intensity) depending on the difference of the evaluation results of the user. In addition, the ultrasonic parameters can be adjusted or the ultrasonic transducer can be replaced in time according to the evaluation result of the second ultrasonic transducer 520 after the ultrasonic stimulation of the ultrasonic duration, so that a better ultrasonic intervention effect can be achieved, and the aim of changing white hair into black hair can be achieved.
