Description

Electric pulse ablation model precision optimization method based on active tissue electrical impedance information non-uniform reconstruction
Technical Field
The invention relates to the technical field of medical instruments, in particular to an electric pulse ablation model precision optimization method based on active tissue electrical impedance information non-uniform reconstruction.
Background
The irreversible tumor electroporation ablation technology is a mechanism that a high-voltage ultrashort pulse electric field with pulse width microsecond level and field intensity of several kilovolts per centimeter can cause irreversible damage to cell membranes, realizes tumor cell killing, and is a novel physical tumor ablation technology appearing in recent years. The technology has no thermal injury in the treatment process, has obviously lower injury to blood vessels, nerves and extracellular matrix than tumor cells, and has been used for minimally invasive treatment of various tumors along with the deep research and the continuous development of the clinical application of the current high-voltage electric pulse ablation technology.
The high-voltage electric pulse ablation technology has wide clinical application prospect, but still has certain defects in clinical application: that is, in the clinical application of current irreversible electroporation tumor ablation therapy, the treatment dosage (pulse parameters, duration, etc.) is generally judged by a doctor by experience, and excessive treatment (damage to normal tissues) or under treatment (incomplete ablation) is easy to occur. The main reason for this situation is that the current irreversible electroporation tumor ablation treatment technology has an incomplete preoperative planning scheme for personalized treatment, i.e. the ablation model is not accurate enough. The essence of the electric pulse tumor ablation treatment is that a high-voltage pulse electric field acts on a tumor region, and the high-voltage electric field with certain field intensity causes irreversible damage to tumor cells, so that researchers at home and abroad can realize the simulation of an ablation process and an ablation effect by constructing a preoperative electric pulse ablation model of a patient so as to achieve an ideal ablation effect, and the electric pulse tumor ablation treatment has an active effect on the accuracy of the electric pulse tumor ablation treatment. One of the key elements of the electric pulse ablation preoperative model construction is the setting of tissue dielectric parameters and distribution characteristics thereof, the dielectric characteristic parameter data of organ tissues in the existing model mostly comes from literature reports (part of parameters come from inactivated tissue dielectric characteristic measurement data), and the uniform distribution parameter setting is mostly adopted on the dielectric characteristic parameter distribution of tumor tissues. However, the real distribution of the dielectric properties of the organ and tissue is that the organ and tissue usually have different dielectric property parameters due to different classifications, such as tumors with different properties in one organ, the dielectric properties of the tumor tissue are different, and the dielectric properties of different parts of the same tumor are also different. Therefore, the existing electric pulse ablation preoperative model cannot embody individual characteristics of nonuniform distribution of dielectric properties of organs and tissues of a patient, the simulation precision is not high enough in the application of electric pulse ablation preoperative planning, the electric pulse parameter output is not accurate enough, and therefore the modeling method of the electric pulse ablation preoperative model needs to be further optimized to improve the accuracy of electric pulse ablation preoperative planning.
