Description
Technical Field
The present invention relates to a pathology detection apparatus, and more particularly, to an oral pathology detection mobile apparatus.
Background
Oral diseases affect a large percentage of the global population, with severe periodontal disease (periodontal disease) being the more prevalent disease. Periodontal disease is the multiplication and accumulation of a large number of pathogens around the gingiva, causing inflammation of the periodontal tissue. If the periodontal disease is slight, only the gingival margin is inflamed, the gingiva is atrophied, and the tooth root is exposed, and if the periodontal disease condition is worsened, the germs grow deeply to the tooth root, so that the tooth is loosened and displaced due to the loss of support, and finally even falls off.
Currently, there is a probe for measuring periodontal pocket, which has a flat probe portion. The flat probe design allows the probe to disperse the force applied to the gums as it penetrates into the capsular bag, thereby reducing the pain experienced by the patient. However, when measuring, the probe needs to be inserted into the space between the teeth and the flesh of the periodontal pocket, and the probe needs to be inserted into the periodontal pocket of each tooth to measure one by one, and after a period of measurement, intolerable pain still occurs, which is daunting.
In addition, the handheld device capable of inspecting dental plaque is provided with a light filtering unit which can filter blue light in long-wave ultraviolet light emitted by the light emitting diode so as to improve the identification degree of human eyes on dental plaque and improve the inspection quality. The handheld device is convenient for the common people to carry out dental plaque inspection by one hand, and the artificial judgment of dental plaque is easier. However, this hand-held device can only inspect the surface of the teeth, and cannot detect the gingiva, so that it is impossible to surely perform evaluation judgment of periodontal disease. Moreover, the handheld device has no image recording function, and is not beneficial to marking and counting dental plaque.

Detailed Description
As used herein, "first," "second," …, etc., do not denote any order or sequence, but rather are used to distinguish one element or operation from another element or operation described in the same technical language.
In view of the fact that the conventional oral cavity inspection device only has a single function of inspecting dental plaque on the surface of teeth or detecting gingivitis, etc., the flat probe for measuring the periodontal pocket can still cause intolerable pain even though it can disperse the force applied to the tooth flesh when penetrating into the pocket, and the inspection process needs to fill in a statistical form manually, which is not favorable for oral cavity inspection. Therefore, the present invention provides an oral cavity pathology detection mobile device, wherein the detection unit does not need to be inserted into the gingival gap when detecting the gingival state, so as to greatly reduce the discomfort of the examinee. Furthermore, the oral pathology detection mobile device may include a detection unit that examines dental plaque, so a more comprehensive oral detection of the subject may be performed. The processor of the mobile device for oral pathology examination can be connected with the medical information system and the information communication technology system of the hospital with the examination data, and the detection and examination data can be filled in the periodontal electronic medical record table which is also connected with the medical information system and the information communication technology system of the hospital. Therefore, the method not only can greatly shorten the detection and form filling time, but also is beneficial to perfecting the treatment scheme of the patient after detection.
Fig. 1 and fig. 2 are a schematic perspective view of an oral pathology detection mobile device according to an embodiment of the present invention, and a schematic view of an internal device of the oral pathology detection mobile device after a housing is detached. The mobile oral pathology detection device 100 mainly includes a housing 110, a detection unit 120, and a processor 130. The detection unit 120 is engaged with the housing 110 and protrudes from one side of the housing 110. For example, as shown in fig. 1, the detection unit 120 protrudes from the front side of the housing 110.
Referring to fig. 3, fig. 3 is a schematic diagram illustrating an apparatus of a detecting unit of an oral pathology detecting mobile apparatus according to an embodiment of the present invention during detecting. The detection unit 120 may be used to detect a gingival state of a tooth of the subject. For example, the detection unit 120 may be used to detect whether the subject has gingivitis. The detection unit 120 may mainly comprise at least one fiber bundle group and at least one contact. In some examples, as shown in FIG. 3, the detection unit 120 includes six fiber bundle groups 121-126 and a contact 127. The contact portion 127 is configured to contact a gum portion 142 of a tooth 140 of the subject. The surface of the contact portion 127 may be, for example, silicone. In these examples, the contact portion 127 is a sleeve-like structure, and the contact portion 127 can be configured to fit over the teeth 140 and the gum portion 142 of the subject.
As shown in FIG. 3, the middle and rear sections of the 6 optical fiber bundles 121-126 can be bundled and integrated by using the hose 128, and the front sections of the optical fiber bundles 121-126 can be separated and moved individually. The 6 groups of fiber bundles 121-126 may be polygonal, circular, or any combination thereof. The 6 groups of optical fiber bundles 121-126 can be equally divided into two parts, i.e. the optical fiber bundles 121-123 and the optical fiber bundles 124-126, and the two parts of the optical fiber bundles 121-123 and the optical fiber bundles 124-126 are respectively inserted into two opposite sides 127a and 127b of the contact portion 127. When the contact portion 127 is disposed on the tooth 140, the two sides 127a and 127b of the contact portion 127 are respectively located on the buccal side 140a and the lingual side 140b of the tooth 140. In some illustrative examples, the optical fiber bundles 121-123 are respectively adjacent to the lower, middle and upper regions of the gum portion 142 on the buccal-proximal side 140a of the tooth 140, and the optical fiber bundles 124-126 are respectively adjacent to the lower, middle and upper regions of the gum portion 142 on the lingual-proximal side 140b of the tooth 140.
The optical fiber bundle group 121 includes a light source optical fiber bundle 121a and a light receiving optical fiber bundle 121 b. Similarly, the optical fiber bundle groups 122-126 include light source optical fiber bundles 122 a-126 a and light receiving optical fiber bundles 122 b-126 b, respectively. The light source fiber bundles 121a to 126a have light emitting ends 121c to 126c, respectively, wherein the light emitting ends 121c to 126c are located at the front ends of the light source fiber bundles 121a to 126a, respectively. These light emitting ends 121c to 126c are provided in the contact portion 127. The light source fiber bundles 121a to 126a can project probe light to the gum portion 142 through the light emitting ends 121c to 126c, respectively. In some exemplary examples, the light source fiber bundles 121a to 126a are infrared light source fiber bundles, and the probe light projected by the light source fiber bundles 121a to 126a to the gum portion 142 is infrared light. The probe light projected by the light source fiber bundles 121a to 126a enters soft tissues such as the gum portion 142, and then hits different structures such as the gum and the teeth, thereby generating diffuse reflection. The infrared light has excellent penetration to soft tissue, which facilitates detection of the gum portion 142.
In each of the optical fiber bundle groups 121 to 126, the light receiving optical fiber bundles 121b to 126b are respectively provided adjacent to the light source optical fiber bundles 121a to 126 a. The light-receiving optical fiber bundles 121b to 126b respectively have light-receiving ends 121d to 126d, wherein the light-receiving ends 121d to 126d are respectively located at the front ends of the light-receiving optical fiber bundles 121b to 126 b. These light-receiving ends 121d to 126d are similarly provided in the contact portion 127. The light receiving fiber bundles 121b to 126b can receive the diffuse reflection light of the probe light projected by the light source fiber bundles 121a to 126a after being diffusely reflected by the gum portion 142 via the light receiving ends 121d to 126d, respectively. Therefore, the optical fiber bundle groups 121-126 can form different light-emitting areas and light-receiving areas corresponding to the light-emitting areas. In some exemplary examples, the light receiving fiber bundles 121b to 126b and the corresponding light source fiber bundles 121a to 126a may be separated by a predetermined distance and may have a predetermined included angle.
In other examples, the detection unit may include only the fiber bundle group and the contact portion. The optical fiber bundle group also comprises a light source optical fiber bundle and a light receiving optical fiber bundle, wherein the light outlet end of the light source optical fiber bundle and the light receiving end of the light receiving optical fiber bundle are adjacently arranged in the contact part. The optical fiber bundle can be bundled by a hose. The front end of the detection unit is contacted with any region of the gum part of the tooth of the examinee, and the light outlet end of the light source optical fiber bundle and the light receiving end of the light receiving optical fiber bundle are adjacent to the contacted region of the gum part, so that the diffuse reflection light of the region of the gum part can be obtained.
In still other examples, the detection unit may include a plurality of fiber bundle groups and a plurality of contacts, wherein the number of the fiber bundle groups corresponds to the number of the contacts. The light-emitting end of the light source optical fiber bundle of the optical fiber bundle group and the light-receiving end of the light-receiving optical fiber bundle are respectively and correspondingly arranged in the contact part in an adjacent mode. By contacting the plurality of contact portions of the detection unit with the plurality of regions of the gingival part of the tooth of the subject, diffuse reflected light of the plurality of regions of the gingival part can be detected and obtained.
Referring to fig. 1 and fig. 2, the processor 130 is disposed in the housing 110 and is in signal connection with the light receiving fiber bundles 121b to 126 b. For example, the processor 130 may be in signal connection with the light-receiving optical fiber bundles 121b to 126b through wires or wireless transmission. The processor 130 may receive the diffuse reflection light received by each of the light-receiving optical fiber bundles 121b to 126b via signal transmission. The processor 130 may further use the diffuse reflection light transmitted from each of the light-receiving fiber bundles 121 b-126 b to respectively establish corresponding spectra. The processor 130 can also determine the state of the gingival area 142 detected by each of the fiber bundle sets 121-126, such as an inflammatory state or a healthy state, according to the spectra. For example, the processor 130 may be a Central Processing Unit (CPU) having image processing functions and arithmetic and logic determination functions.
In some illustrative examples, the processor 130 may store a gum diffuse reflectance spectrum database, wherein the gum diffuse reflectance spectrum database includes diffuse reflectance spectrum data for lesion feature identification. In such an example, the processor 130 may compare the spectrums using the gingival diffuse reflection spectrum database, thereby determining the state of each region of the gingival part 142.
In some examples, the processor 130 may also be wired to the medical information system and the information communication technology system via wired or wireless transmission technologies. In these examples, the processor 130 can also use the medical information system and the telematics system to fill the determined status of each region of the gum portion 142 into the periodontal electronic medical record table, which is also connected to the medical information system and the telematics system. Therefore, the table filling time of detection can be greatly shortened, patients meeting the conditions can participate in a list of treatment of periodontal special care delivery objects delivered by governments, and the treatment scheme after detection can be further perfected.
Because the detection unit 120 need not to be inserted into the gum gap of the examinee when detecting the gum state of the examinee's teeth, the discomfort of the examinee can be greatly reduced, the examination will of the examinee can be improved, and further the oral diseases can be effectively reduced.
Referring to fig. 2 and fig. 4, fig. 4 is a front view schematically illustrating an image capturing lens, a light source module, and a cover of a mobile device for oral pathology detection according to an embodiment of the invention. In some examples, the oral pathology detection mobile device 100 may also optionally include a detection unit 150. The detection unit 150 can be used to detect whether the subject's teeth have plaque. For example, the detection unit 150 can be used to detect whether the subject has periodontitis due to dental plaque.
The detecting unit 150 mainly includes an image capturing lens 152, an image capturing module 154, and a light source module 156. The taking lens 152 is disposed at one side of the housing 110, for example, coupled to the front side of the housing 110 together with the detecting unit 120, as shown in fig. 1. The image capturing lens 152 can be used to obtain a plurality of oral cavity images of the oral cavity of the subject. When the subject has plaque, these oral images contain plaque images. In some exemplary embodiments, the image capturing lens 152 can be used to capture at least five oral cavity images of different areas of the oral cavity of each subject, so as to completely determine whether the teeth in each area of the oral cavity have dental plaque.
Referring to fig. 1 and fig. 2, the image capturing module 154 is disposed in the housing 110 to form an embedded module. The image capturing module 154 is in signal connection with the image capturing lens 152. For example, the image capturing module 154 may be in signal connection with the image capturing lens 152 in a wired manner such as a wire, or in signal connection with the image capturing lens 152 in a wireless transmission manner. Therefore, the image capturing lens 152 can transmit the captured oral cavity image to the image capturing module 154. After the image capturing module 154 obtains the oral cavity images, the image capturing module can process the oral cavity images. For example, the image capturing module 154 can enhance image contrast, perform gaussian averaging on the image, and/or label dental plaque and count the results. In some illustrative examples, the image capturing module 154 may be a Complementary Metal Oxide Semiconductor (CMOS) image capturing module.
Referring to fig. 4, the light source module 156 is disposed adjacent to the image capturing lens 152, and provides a light source for image capturing by the image capturing lens 152 when the image capturing lens 152 captures an oral cavity image. The light source module 156 may surround the image capturing lens 152, for example, to provide a more uniform light source to the image capturing lens 152 in each direction around the image capturing lens 152. In some examples, the light source module 156 includes a plurality of first light emitting diodes 156a and a plurality of second light emitting diodes 156b, wherein the first light emitting diodes 156a and the second light emitting diodes 156b surround the image capturing lens 152 in an interlaced manner. In addition, the first light emitting diode 156a and the second light emitting diode 156b emit light with different wavelengths, that is, the first light emitting diode 156a and the second light emitting diode 156b emit light with different wavelengths. In some illustrative examples, the first led 156a may be a uv led and the second led 156b may be a white led. For example, the first light emitting diode 156a may emit light having a wavelength of 405 nm. In other examples, the light source module 156 may include more than three light sources with different light emitting wavelengths as required.
The detection unit 150 may apply a fluorescence principle of light-induced fluorescence Quantification (QLF) to enhance the image of bacteria in the oral cavity. For example, the ultraviolet light emitted from the first light emitting diode 156a can be used to excite bacteria, so that the bacteria can generate autofluorescence, and the dental plaque image in the captured oral cavity image can be clearer. In addition, the second light emitting diode 156b emitting white light can make the oral cavity image captured by the image capturing lens 152 be a color image.
With continued reference to fig. 2 and 4, in some examples, the mobile oral pathology detection device 100 may further optionally include a cover 158. The cover 158 is disposed around the image capturing lens 152 and the light source module 156 to surround the image capturing lens 152 and the light source module 156 and the front sides of the image capturing lens 152 and the light source module 156. The cover 158 can concentrate the light emitted from the light source module 156 around the image capturing lens 152, so as to improve the oral image capturing effect of the image capturing lens 152.
In some examples, the image capture module 154 is in signal communication with the processor 130. The image capturing module 154 may be connected to the processor 130 in a wired manner, such as a wire, or in a wireless transmission manner. Therefore, the image capturing module 154 can transmit the received oral cavity image, or the oral cavity image processed by the image or labeled with dental plaque, to the processor 130. The processor 130 can determine the detection result of the dental plaque state of each tooth in the oral cavity according to the received oral cavity image. The processor 130 can further fill the dental plaque status detection results into the periodontal electronic medical record table through the medical information system and the telematics system.
In these examples, by adding the detection unit 150 for detecting dental plaque to the mobile device 100 for oral pathology detection, the detection unit 150 can be used to detect whether the teeth of the subject have periodontitis with dental plaque, and the detection unit 120 can be used to detect whether the teeth of the subject have gingivitis. As such, the mobile oral pathology test device 100 can perform more comprehensive oral tests on the subject.
With continued reference to fig. 1, in some examples, the mobile oral pathology detection device 100 may further optionally include a display device 160. The display device 160 is disposed at the other side of the housing 110, and the display device 160 and the taking lens 152 are disposed at different sides of the housing 110. For example, the display device 160 and the image capturing lens 152 are located at two opposite sides of the housing 110, wherein the image capturing lens 152 is located at the front side of the housing 110, and the display device 160 is located at the rear side of the housing 110. The display device 160 may also be in signal communication with the processor 130 via wired or wireless transmission. Accordingly, the processor 130 can transmit the state of the gum 142 of each tooth 140 detected by the detecting unit 120 and the oral cavity image detected by the detecting unit 150 to the display device 160. After receiving the image, the display device 160 can display the state of the gum 142 of each tooth 140 and the oral cavity image, so that the inspector can know the state of the gum 142 of each tooth 140 of the subject and can watch the oral cavity image to know the dental plaque condition of the tooth 140 of the subject. In some exemplary embodiments, the display device 160 may be a touch screen for the convenience of the inspector.
Referring to fig. 1, in some examples, the mobile oral pathology detection apparatus 100 further optionally includes a handle 170. The handle 170 is coupled to the housing 110. The handle 170 may be coupled to a side of the housing 110 convenient for the examiner to take for the examiner to hold the mobile oral pathology examination device 100 for examination. For example, the handle 170 may be coupled to the underside of the housing 110.
