Description

Technical Field
The invention relates to a photoacoustic effect simulation and emulation method, belonging to the technical field of development of photoacoustic effects, photoacoustic forward models and emulation models.
Background
The photoacoustic effect refers to a physical phenomenon in which an object generates an acoustic signal under excitation of laser light. Based on the photoacoustic effect, photoacoustic imaging technology has gained wide attention and has been rapidly developed in recent years. At present, the photoacoustic imaging technology has achieved certain success in small animal imaging, blood oxygen saturation quantification and tumor benign and malignant diagnosis.
The development of photoacoustic imaging has benefited to some extent from the development and maturation of photoacoustic simulation software. The k-Wave is relatively mature photoacoustic simulation software and is widely applied to various work related to photoacoustic. The most important function in k-Wave is photoacoustic forward model simulation, and photoacoustic effects are simulated by solving a photoacoustic equation through a numerical method and generating photoacoustic signals from initial pressure distribution. However, the numerical method is complex in calculation and long in operation time, and particularly under the conditions of high sampling rate and large initial pressure distribution grid. The shortcoming of low operation speed in the K-Wave greatly reduces the application range of the tool kit.

Detailed Description
The invention will be further illustrated with reference to the following specific examples. It should be understood that these examples are for illustrative purposes only and are not intended to limit the scope of the present invention. Further, it should be understood that various changes or modifications of the present invention may be made by those skilled in the art after reading the teaching of the present invention, and such equivalents may fall within the scope of the present invention as defined in the appended claims.
The invention provides a photoacoustic effect simulation and emulation method based on sound wave superposition, which comprises the following steps of:
step 1, dividing an initial pressure distribution grid provided by photoacoustic simulation software into n multiplied by m pixel points, wherein J ultrasonic probes in different positions are in total;
step 2, setting j =1;
step 3, setting p =1;
step 4, setting the pixel values of n multiplied by m pixel points to enable only the pth pixel point in the initial pressure distribution grid to act;
step 5, under the set sampling rate, using photoacoustic simulation software to obtain an ultrasonic signal output by a jth ultrasonic probe, wherein the ultrasonic signal is a standard signal S, and obtaining the distance d from the center of a pth pixel point in an initial pressure distribution grid to the center of the jth ultrasonic probe;
taking k-Wave as an example, the pixel value of the p-th pixel point is set to 1 in a fixed grid, and the pixel values of other pixel points are set to 0, so that only the p-th pixel point in the whole initial pressure distribution is ensured to be acted. Under the set sampling rate, arranging an ultrasonic probe around the pixel point to acquire an ultrasonic signal (standard signal S); obtaining distance information d by calculating the distance between the center of the p pixel point and the center of the j ultrasonic probe;
step 6, according to the position of the jth ultrasonic probe, calculating a phase operator of the photoacoustic signal generated by the pth pixel point through the distance from the pth pixel point to the jth ultrasonic probe in the obtained standard signal S and the distance d;
let the two-dimensional coordinate of the jth ultrasonic probe be (x, y), and the two-dimensional coordinate of the pth pixel point be (x) p ,y p ) Then, the calculation process of the phase operator for generating the photoacoustic signal by the p-th pixel point includes the following steps:
calculating the distance d from the p-th pixel point to the j-th ultrasonic probe in the standard signal S p

When phase operator tau (d) p ,d)>When 0, the phase is shifted to the right; when phase operator tau (d) p ,d)<When 0, the phase is shifted to the left;
step 7, calculating an amplitude operator of the photoacoustic signal generated by the p-th pixel point according to the pixel value of the p-th pixel point in the standard signal S and the distance from the p-th pixel point to the j-th ultrasonic probe;
there are three factors that affect the magnitude of the photoacoustic signal: (1) The size of the pixel value is in direct proportion to the signal amplitude. (2) The signal decays, often in a power exponential fashion in the medium. (3) The spread of signal energy, plane wave energy dissipation, tends to spread in power exponentiation. Because the simulation method of the present invention is based on an ideal environment, the present invention ignores the attenuation of the signal in the medium, only considers the spread of pixel values and energy, and then:
the calculation process of the amplitude operator for generating the photoacoustic signal by the p-th pixel point comprises the following steps:
the process of energy dissipation is approximated using a power exponential function of the negative second order, as shown in equation (3) below:

step 10, J = J +1, if J > J, step 11 is entered, otherwise, step 3 is returned;
and 11, obtaining photoacoustic signals of the overall initial pressure distribution of the J ultrasonic probes at different positions.
To illustrate the effectiveness of the invention, three pictures were used as the initial pressure distribution of the photo-acoustic, respectively a simple object, a simple blood vessel and a complex blood vessel. The first two pictures are the example pictures taken in k-Wave.
The present invention first shows the results generated by k-Wave and our method, as shown in FIG. 1.
The first column of fig. 1 shows three samples, the second and third columns show the photoacoustic signals generated by k-Wave and the method provided by the present invention. The fourth and fifth columns show photoacoustic images in which the generated photoacoustic signals are reconstructed by a delay-and-overlap algorithm. It can be seen that the method provided by the invention can almost achieve the same effect as k-Wave.
The speed advantage of the method provided by the invention over k-Wave under different conditions was then tested. The experiments are summarized in table 1:
table 1 parameter settings in different experiments
Figure BDA0002850303700000052
Experiment 1: the resolution of the initial pressure profile picture was changed from 64 to 256, the speed of operation of which is shown in table 2. It can be found that the method provided by the invention has obvious advantages under the condition of different resolutions of three samples.
TABLE 2 run speed comparison of experiment 1 (seconds)
Figure BDA0002850303700000061
Experiment 2: the sampling rate test running speed is changed. The larger the sampling rate, the longer the run time, but the impact of the high sampling rate on k-Wave is much larger than the method provided by the present invention. The method provided by the present invention still has advantages, with the run times shown in table 3.
TABLE 3 run speed comparison of experiment 2 (seconds)
Figure BDA0002850303700000062
Experiment 3: the probe number was varied to test the operating speed. The number of probes does not change the speed of operation of k-Wave, but since steps 3-9 need to be repeated, the number of probes greatly affects the operation time of our method. A run-time comparison is shown in fig. 2. For samples 1 and 2, the method provided by the present invention has advantages even with a number of probes as high as 512. For sample 3, when the number of probes exceeded 384, k-Wave was faster than the speed of the present invention. Overall, however, the present invention provides a method that has speed advantages in most cases.
Experiment 4: the distance from the probe to the sample was varied to measure the run speed. In k-Wave, the fact that the probe is farther means that a larger grid is needed to contain the probe, and the operation speed of the k-Wave is greatly influenced by the larger number of grids. In contrast, the method provided by the invention is not greatly influenced by the distance of the probe. The run time results are shown in table 4.
