Description

Blood flow imaging method for 3D endoscope based on multi-angle scattering random matrix
Technical Field
The invention relates to the technical field of optical imaging, in particular to a blood flow imaging method for a 3D endoscope based on a multi-angle scattering random matrix.
Background
3D endoscopy is an emerging tool in surgery that can provide real-time depth perception. By three-dimensionally reconstructing the contour data of internal tissues and organs or focus parts of a human body, the 3D endoscope effectively improves the accuracy, feasibility and scientificity of the current diagnosis and treatment process. At present, 3D endoscopes have been introduced and used in various departments such as abdominal cavity, cranial cavity, digestive system department, and the like.
The clinical use of indocyanine green dye in combination with fluorescence imaging to obtain the visual images of tumor and vascular blood flow is currently available, but this technique is subject to the metabolic cycle of dye injection and is prone to false-positive results. Laser Speckle Contrast Imaging (LSCI) is a simple and low-cost method that can acquire 2D perfusion maps of the entire field of view and provide a dynamic description of blood flow changes in real time, and thus can be used as an intraoperative blood flow monitoring tool. In contrast to fluorescence imaging, LSCI does not require contrast agents and can therefore be used as needed at any time during surgery. The signals recorded by the reflective laser speckle system simultaneously contain single-scattering photons and multiple-scattering photons, which respectively correspond to blood flow information of blood vessels on the surface layer and the deeper layer of an object in an operation, and the conventional LSCI method cannot realize the statistical separation of the single-scattering light intensity and the multiple-scattering light intensity at present.
Most medical clinical diagnosis and treatment not only have the requirement on stereoscopic visualization, but also have the requirement on the development of physiological information such as blood flow of blood vessels at different depths, and if the LSCI technology-based single and multiple scattering light intensity statistical separation can be realized and the LSCI technology-based single and multiple scattering light intensity statistical separation and the LSCI technology-based multiple scattering light intensity statistical separation can be effectively combined with a 3D endoscope, the LSCI technology-based multiple scattering light intensity statistical separation and the LSCI technology-based multiple scattering light intensity statistical separation can be obviously improved, and the LSI technology-based multiple scattering light intensity statistical separation can be obviously improved.

the first central moment of the multiple scattered light intensity.
The invention can obtain the more pure surface blood vessel statistical characteristics and blood flow information and present better imaging effect (single scattering part); the statistical characteristics and blood flow information of blood vessels at deeper parts in the tissue can be presented, and meanwhile, surface reflection points (multiple scattering parts) are effectively removed; because the random matrix is insensitive to rigid motion, the invention can eliminate or reduce imaging artifacts generated by partial physiological motion (breathing, heartbeat and the like). Compared with the traditional single-scattering and multiple-scattering light intensity statistical separation method based on a single camera, the method has the advantages that the characteristic description of the scattering matrix is more accurate, the statistical separation of the first-order moment and the second-order central moment can be realized, further, the information of the first-order moment and the second-order moment is combined, the overall intensity distribution of single-scattering and multiple-scattering can be more accurately described, and more accurate functional information such as blood flow, tissue perfusion and the like can be further obtained.
The above embodiments are merely examples and do not limit the scope of the present invention. These embodiments may be implemented in other various manners, and various omissions, substitutions, and changes may be made without departing from the technical spirit of the present invention.
