Description
Technical Field
The invention belongs to the field of bioelectrical impedance tomography, and particularly relates to an electrical impedance tomography method for reconstructing an intracranial hemorrhage image.
Background
Intracranial hemorrhage is one of the most common acute cerebrovascular diseases in neurosurgery, and is generally caused by sudden rupture of cerebral vessels. If the patient cannot take timely and effective treatment, the temporary or permanent damage to the brain function will be caused. When intracranial hemorrhage occurs, the course of disease of a patient changes rapidly and evolves complicatedly, and the medicine has the characteristics of high morbidity, high mortality, high disability rate and high recurrence rate.
At present, the diagnosis and treatment of patients with cerebral hemorrhage are mainly performed clinically by methods such as Computed Tomography (CT) and Magnetic Resonance Imaging (MRI). Although in most cases, physicians can relatively accurately understand the basic condition of patients with cerebral hemorrhage according to the images generated by these devices, these devices have certain limitations: the operation and control are complex, the cost is high, the imaging time is long, and the CT has radioactivity, so that the CT can not be used for performing real-time craniocerebral imaging, early diagnosis and long-time continuous monitoring on a stroke patient, clinical medical care personnel can not know the development of the illness state of the patient in real time, and the treatment of the patient is influenced. Therefore, there is an urgent need for rapid, real-time imaging methods for intracranial hemorrhage for clinical treatment.
Electrical Impedance Tomography (EIT) is an imaging method for reconstructing the internal electrical characteristics of an object, which applies safe current excitation to a target under a certain excitation and measurement mode, then measures boundary voltage, and images the distribution information of the electrical characteristics by analyzing and processing measurement data. Compared with CT and MRI, electrical impedance tomography has the advantages of short time consumption, low cost, no radiation, portability and the like, and is widely applied to medical imaging. Current research shows that electrical impedance tomography can effectively image intracranial hemorrhage. However, the inverse problem of electrical impedance tomography is inherently ill-conditioned, i.e., the number of boundary voltage measurements is much smaller than the number of pixels that need to be reconstructed, so the solution to the inverse problem is not unique and the measurement voltage is sensitive to noise, making it difficult to obtain a stable solution. Currently, many algorithms are proposed to solve the ill-posed nature of the inverse problem, and in order to obtain an optimal solution and improve the stability of the solution, these algorithms usually need to perform iterative solution, but the computation amount is greatly increased during the iterative solution, so that the instantaneity of the EIT is reduced. In addition, in the electrical impedance imaging of the cranium and the brain, the conductivity of the skull of a human body is very low relative to the brain skin and the intracranial tissues, which can cause that the intracranial sensitivity is too low when an image is reconstructed, the boundary voltage is not sensitive to the change of the conductivity of the intracranial tissues, the reconstructed image is easy to generate artifacts, and the reconstructed target is not accurate.
Aiming at the problems of long imaging time consumption caused by large operation amount of the traditional brain electrical impedance tomography method and low imaging quality caused by low intracranial sensitivity, the invention needs to provide a simplified imaging method capable of improving the conductivity sensitivity degree of intracranial tissues. The method not only can effectively reduce the calculation amount of the algorithm iteration process, but also can improve the sensitivity degree of the boundary voltage to the conductivity of the intracranial tissues by updating the standardized sensitivity matrix in real time.

The method reduces modeling errors and obtains the sensitivity of the whole field of the cranium by constructing a standardized normal human cranium model. The sensitivity of the cranium is subjected to initial standardization processing, so that the sensitivity distribution is more uniform, and meanwhile, in the iterative solution process, the sensitivity of a target field is iteratively updated by adopting a self-adaptive sensitivity standardization method, so that the imaging quality is improved. In the inverse problem of EIT, a constraint sparse minimization model is provided to obtain an optimal solution for image reconstruction, and in the solving process, an improved fast gradient method is used for solving the conductivity distribution, so that the complexity of the algorithm is reduced, and the iterative computation speed is increased. The method can reconstruct the images of the conductivity distribution of the cranium and the brain when the cranium and the brain bleed, and has good effects on reducing the artifact of the reconstructed images, improving the accuracy of the reconstructed images, accelerating the imaging speed and the like.

(2) Setting P, Ck=LA(σk,gk;γk,δk) C represents a function average value, P is a function average value parameter, and then internal iteration is carried out for solving;
in the formula, sgn represents a sign function, max represents a maximum function, and the superscript k is the kth iteration;
(4) in order to improve the calculation speed and avoid a large number of operations such as matrix transposition, inversion and the like, the conductivity variation is solved by using an improved fast gradient method. The modified fast gradient method is as follows:
