Description

Signal collection device, system and method for subcutaneous biomarker
Technical Field
The invention belongs to the technical field of optical detection, and particularly relates to a signal collection device, a signal collection system and a signal collection method for subcutaneous biomarkers.
Background
This section is intended to provide a background or context to the embodiments of the invention that are recited in the claims. The description herein is not to be taken as an admission of prior art as including in this section.
The application of optical detection technology has been promoted to various fields in life, and has been widely used in medical examination related to human health, and there is a further in-depth and popular demand. Biological characteristics can be reflected through the characteristics of the optical information, and the analysis can be carried out to strongly support treatment and daily health monitoring.
For example, the measurement method based on near infrared spectrum analysis has the characteristics of painless, noninvasive, simple, quick and the like, can improve the problems of the conventional inspection method, and is one of potential methods for obtaining application of blood noninvasive biochemical analysis. For example, the Raman spectrum detection technology can reflect the change of human tissue cell molecules in the application of the Raman spectrum detection technology in the biomedical field, and is a novel technology for early lesion detection. Different Raman peaks are the characteristics of certain specific molecules, so that the Raman spectrum has the functions of qualitative analysis and distinguishing similar substances, the peak intensity of the Raman spectrum is in direct proportion to the concentration of the corresponding molecules, and the Raman spectrum can also be used for quantitative analysis and can provide theoretical basis for clinical diagnosis. The prediction can be used for judging whether the disease is caused or not according to the characteristic peak intensity of the blood sample in the Raman spectrum.
Taking a Raman detection device as an example, the Raman signal light is collected and transmitted to a detection module, and the Raman signal intensities at different wavelengths are detected. Thus how to collect signals efficiently and sufficiently in optical detection is a prominent problem of the design of the optical path in optical detection devices is also one of the key designs in the current art that need to be optimized. On the other hand, the problem before collection is how accurately the excitation light is focused to the location to be detected, which is related to the ease of sample preparation and whether it can be generalized outside the laboratory. If the excitation light is accurately focused on a specific position on the sample, a sample holder or a sample table is obviously required to be reasonably designed under the condition that the design of an optical path is unchanged, and possible pretreatment is performed on the surface of the sample, so that the test efficiency is affected, the sample is regulated each time, the efficiency is low, and the cost is possibly increased. While the testing conditions are limited for applications outside the laboratory, the medium between the sample to be tested and the light source is an unavoidable problem affecting the concentration of excitation light to a specific location and subsequent signal collection.
Particularly in subcutaneous biomarker detection applications. Skin is the largest and most useful organ of the human body surface area, the total weight is approximately eight percent of the human body weight, it contains 25% -30% of water of the whole circulating blood of the human body, and skin tissue is basically composed of epidermis, dermis, subcutaneous fat. The interstitial fluid or blood under the skin contains many biospecific markers which are closely related to the health condition and disease level of the human body. However, many current medical techniques have difficulty in noninvasive detection of biomarkers through the skin, such as blood glucose detection requiring blood sampling assays, or finger prick blood sampling. The use of optical detection techniques is essential if they can be used for non-invasive subcutaneous medical detection, especially if the general population can monitor the health of individuals in places other than the medical laboratory. Skin is a turbid scattering medium that scatters incident light, resulting in a large deviation in the wavefront of photons entering the skin, and focusing to a specific subcutaneous location is greatly compromised, resulting in a need for improved collection efficiency. Therefore, it is necessary to develop a signal collecting device, a system and a method thereof, which can accurately focus on a specific detection position, is beneficial to improving the collection efficiency and has reliable detection results.
The above information disclosed in the background section is only for enhancement of understanding of the background of the disclosure and therefore it may include information that does not form the prior art that is already known to a person of ordinary skill in the art. The matters in the background section are only those known to the public and do not, of course, represent prior art in the field.
