Description
Technical Field
The invention relates to the technical field of medical instruments, in particular to an optical coherence tomography system and an imaging catheter thereof.
Background
Optical Coherence Tomography (OCT) is an imaging technique that obtains the depth direction tomographic capability based on the principle of low Coherence interference, and reconstructs two-dimensional or three-dimensional images of the internal structure of biological tissues or materials by deflecting and scanning a light beam through a galvanometer. The OCT has the advantages of non-contact, non-invasion, high imaging speed (real-time dynamic imaging), high detection sensitivity and the like. At present, the OCT technology has been widely used in clinical diagnosis and scientific research. The traditional OCT system based on galvanometer scanning can only scan and image from outside the body, and in order to image some tissues which are far away in the body and difficult to reach, especially the pipeline structure, an endoscopic optical coherence tomography system using an optical fiber imaging catheter is gradually used.
The endoscopic optical coherence tomography system comprises an optical fiber slip ring and an endoscopic imaging catheter, wherein the endoscopic imaging catheter comprises an endoscopic probe, and the endoscopic probe usually comprises an optical fiber, a miniature imaging lens and a deflection reflector. The optical fiber slip ring and the imaging catheter are driven to rotate by the motor transmission platform so as to realize annular scanning imaging of endoscopic OCT. When the imaging catheter is inserted into a tissue to perform imaging, a protective sheath is generally sleeved outside the imaging catheter in order to avoid injuring the internal tissue during rotary scanning, and the protective sheath has good light transmittance and biocompatibility, so that the minimum rotation loss of the imaging catheter and the safety of the internal tissue can be ensured. Therefore, the endoscopic optical coherence tomography system has excellent application prospect in the fields of coronary artery imaging, intestinal tract imaging and pulmonary duct imaging.
When an optical coherence tomography system scans, the resolution of the system is inversely proportional to the focal depth, and in order to realize the imaging of a micro duct in a body, the diameter of an OCT endoscopic probe is generally about 1mm, so the sizes of a focusing lens and a reflecting mirror are generally smaller than 1mm, the micro size limits the numerical aperture of the focusing lens, and the resolution is sharply reduced due to the small numerical aperture. In the prior art, the resolution of the OCT system is generally improved by using a shorter wavelength and wider bandwidth light source, however, the use of a shorter wavelength light source results in a greatly increased scattering of light in the tissue, which severely limits the penetration of light and thus the imaging depth of the system in the tissue.
In summary, endoscopic optical coherence tomography systems have larger optical aberrations relative to extracorporeal optical coherence tomography systems, and the limited numerical aperture places greater constraints on the balance between OCT resolution and depth of focus. Therefore, how to improve the resolution of endoscopic OCT without reducing the depth of focus is a major development direction for the clinical development of endoscopic OCT systems.
Disclosure of Invention
In view of the foregoing, it is a first object of the present invention to provide an imaging catheter having a structural design that allows for increased resolution without reducing the depth of focus, and a second object of the present invention to provide an optical coherence tomography system including the above-described imaging catheter.
In order to achieve the first object, the invention provides the following technical scheme:
an imaging catheter, comprising:
the imaging lens is fixed in the shell and is opposite to the through hole of the shell;
one end of the optical fiber is fixedly connected with the imaging lens;
the protective sheath is arranged outside the optical fiber, the air bag is connected with the front end of the protective sheath, and an inflation port is arranged at the tail end of the protective sheath; the inner wall of the air bag is circumferentially provided with a plurality of rows of super lenses, each row of super lenses comprises a plurality of super lenses which are sequentially arranged along the length direction of the air bag, and the imaging lens is positioned in the air bag and between the rows of super lenses.
Preferably, in the above imaging catheter, a plurality of rows of the superlenses are uniformly distributed on the inner wall of the balloon along the circumferential direction thereof.
Preferably, in the above imaging catheter, the imaging lens is in a spherical crown shape.
Preferably, in the above imaging catheter, the optical fiber and the imaging lens are fixedly connected by fusion.
Preferably, in the above imaging catheter, the material of the protective sheath and the balloon is polyethylene;
the superlens is bonded to the inner wall of the balloon.
Preferably, in the above imaging catheter, at least a part of the balloon is cylindrical, the plurality of rows of the superlenses are disposed on an inner wall of a cylindrical portion of the balloon, and the plurality of rows of the superlenses are uniformly disposed along a circumferential direction of the cylindrical portion of the balloon.
Preferably, in the above imaging catheter, a torsion spring is further sleeved outside the optical fiber, and the torsion spring is driven to rotate so as to drive the housing and the imaging lens to rotate relative to the balloon.
Preferably, in the above imaging catheter, the optical fiber is a single mode optical fiber.
Preferably, in the above imaging catheter, the cross section of the superlens is cylindrical or square-cylindrical.
An optical coherence tomography system comprising an imaging catheter as claimed in any one of the above.
When the imaging catheter provided by the embodiment is applied, the light beam is emitted from the optical fiber and then irradiates to the imaging lens, the light beam is focused by the imaging lens, the focused light beam irradiates to the multiple rows of super lenses of the air bag after passing through the through hole of the shell, the shapes of the light beam can be adjusted to be approximately Gaussian-shaped light spots by the multiple rows of super lenses, the phase, the amplitude, the polarization and the shape of the light beam are adjusted in the process that the light beam passes through the multiple rows of super lenses, and then the light beam irradiates to tissues on the outer wall of the air bag. The balloon can be expanded by inflation to expand some of the conduits, avoiding the conduits from squeezing the housing and imaging lens.
In addition, due to the different diameters of the internal channels, the focal length of the imaging lens cannot be completely focused on various channels, and the imaging effect is sharply reduced after the imaging lens deviates from the focusing position due to the limitation of the focal depth. In the application, the size of the air bag can be adjusted, so that the position of the pipe wall of the pipeline is just at the focusing position of the imaging lens, and the optimal imaging effect is obtained. In other words, the diameter of a focusing light spot is not required to be reduced by reducing the numerical aperture, the resolution of the OCT can be improved under the condition that the imaging focal depth is not reduced by the super-lens array, the focal depth under the condition of large working distance can be improved by adjusting the size of the air bag, and the imaging resolution is prevented from being improved by reducing the imaging focal depth.
In the embodiment of the application, the superlens is arranged on the inner wall of the air bag, and is not required to be arranged inside the protective sheath, so that the installation size of the imaging catheter can be effectively reduced.
To achieve the second objective, the present invention further provides an optical coherence tomography system, which includes any one of the imaging catheters described above. Since the above-mentioned imaging catheter has the above-mentioned technical effects, the optical coherence tomography system having the imaging catheter should also have corresponding technical effects.

Detailed Description
As described in the background, the endoscopic optical coherence tomography is widely used in the in vivo imaging technology, and the geometric structural morphology of the duct tissue can be acquired by integrating the optical imaging element in the catheter and extending into the duct for imaging. Optical coherence tomography provides high resolution tomographic images, but its imaging depth is relatively shallow, typically only 1-2mm penetration depth in tissue. The pipe diameters of the pipelines in the human body are different, and the diameters are approximately distributed between 0.5 mm and 8 mm. Since the optical elements of an optical coherence tomography system are very small in diameter, the numerical aperture is usually small. In order to obtain a smaller focused light spot to improve the lateral resolution, the working distance of the imaging probe, i.e. the distance from the probe surface to the focal point, is generally adjusted to be short, however, the extremely short working distance improves the resolution, but the focal depth range is small, and the imaging range is greatly sacrificed, so that tissues with a large pipe diameter are difficult to clearly image, thereby limiting the clinical application of endoscopic OCT.
It is a first object of the present invention to provide an imaging catheter having a structural design that allows for improved resolution without a reduction in depth of focus, and a second object of the present invention to provide an optical coherence tomography system including the above-described imaging catheter.
