Meanwhile, the tracker 3 is fixed on the sleeve 5, the tracker 3 can be identified and positioned by the camera 1, and as the distal end of the sleeve 5 is inserted into the human body, the tracker 3 is identified by the camera 1, the operator can be helped to identify the direction of the emission window 51, so that the operator can control the sleeve 5 to rotate to adjust the direction of the emission window 51. The control of the rotation of the sleeve 5 may be manual control by an operator or may be automatic control by a computer. .
Specifically, the optical marker 4 may be a passive light reflecting component such as a light reflecting ball, or may be a component capable of actively emitting light such as an LED optical marker 4, and the camera may be a component such as an infrared navigation camera; the optical marker, by being recognized by the camera 1, reaches the effect of the position and angle of the emission window 51 on the marker sleeve 5.
In the present embodiment, the at least three optical markers 4 include a first set group formed by two of the optical markers 4, and the connection line of the two optical markers of the first set group is oriented in correspondence with the emission window 51. Since the positions of the two optical markers can be recognized by the camera, the line connecting the two optical markers can determine a direction vector, and by setting the line connecting the two optical markers to coincide with the orientation of the emission window 51, the camera can determine the direction vector of the emission window 51, that is, the orientation of the emission window 51, from the direction vector of the line connecting the two optical markers.
As an alternative to the above-described first set of settings, the first set of settings is formed by three optical markers 4, the normal to the plane formed by the three optical markers 4 being coincident with the orientation of the emission window 51. Since the positions of the three optical markers can be recognized by the camera, the three optical markers can determine a plane, and by setting the direction of the normal line of the plane to coincide with the direction of the emission window 51, the camera can determine the direction vector of the emission window 51, that is, the direction of the emission window 51, from the direction of the normal line of the plane formed by the three optical markers.
In order to achieve a conformal ablation control of the microwave ablation device, the camera also needs to identify the position of the emission window at the distal end of the sleeve, in this embodiment the tracker 3 further comprises a second set of two of the optical markers 4, the connection line of the two optical markers 4 of the second set being in the same direction as the axis of the sleeve 5, and the emission window 51 being located on a straight line where the connection line is located. Since the line connecting the two optical markers of the second set is in the same direction as the axis of the sleeve, and the distance dimension of the optical markers from the emission window of the sleeve 5 can be measured in advance, when the camera is able to identify the position of the optical markers of the second set, the position of the emission window 5 in the camera coordinate system can be determined by the known distance dimension.
In a specific embodiment of the tracker 3, the tracker has three optical markers 4, wherein one optical marker 4 is a common optical marker, a first set and a second set are formed with the other two optical markers 4, respectively, and the first set and the second set are formed between the common optical marker and the other two optical markers, respectively.
In another embodiment of the tracker 3, the tracker includes at least four optical markers, where the optical markers in the first set and the second set may be non-co-located, the spatial structures formed by the four optical markers 4 may form two non-co-located lines, one for indicating the orientation of the emission window 51, the other being in the same direction as the axis of the sleeve 5, and the emission window 51 being located on a line where the lines are located.
As an alternative embodiment, the tracker 3 includes 4 optical markers 4, and the 4 optical markers 4 are respectively located on a zero point and three rays in a rectangular coordinate system, and a connecting line between the zero point and the optical marker 4 on one of the rays is the same as the axial direction of the sleeve 5. The 4 optical markers 4 form a space structure similar to a rectangular coordinate system, and the orientation and the rotation angle of the emission window 51 can be identified through the camera 1.
In the present embodiment, the microwave ablation energy emitted from the tip of the microwave ablation needle 6 exits from the emission window 51 in a fan shape so as to perform ablation treatment on the tumor solid portion toward which the emission window 51 faces.
In this embodiment, the sleeve 5 is inserted into a human body, the sleeve 5 can be fixed through human tissue, the microwave ablation needle 6 is movably nested in the sleeve 5, so that the sleeve 5 rotates relative to the microwave ablation needle 6, and after the microwave ablation needle 6 is inserted into the sleeve 5, an operator can rotate the sleeve 5 to adjust the direction of the emission window 51, so that the directional ablation of the subsequent tumor entity is realized.
In this embodiment, the emission window 51 is a slit opened in the axial direction of the sleeve 5, and the center line of the slit is located on a straight line where the line between the two optical markers 4 in the same axial direction as the sleeve 5 is located. Since the diameters of the microwave ablation needle 6 and the sleeve 5 are relatively small, and the diameter of the sleeve 5 is about 2mm, the slit is formed on the sleeve 5 to enable the microwave ablation energy to be emitted, and the shape of the slit is not particularly limited and can be rectangular, elliptic and the like.
In the present embodiment, the distance between the center position of the slit and the tip of the sleeve 5 is not more than 8mm, i.e., the distance between the center position of the emission window 51 and the tip of the sleeve 5 is not more than 8mm. The tip of the distal end of the microwave ablation needle 6 is used for emitting microwave ablation energy, so that the position between the emission window 51 and the part of the microwave ablation needle 6 for emitting microwave ablation energy can be better matched, and the situation that the distance between a gap and the tip of the microwave ablation needle 6 is too large is avoided, so that the emission window 51 misses the part of the microwave ablation needle 6 for emitting microwave ablation energy.
In this embodiment, the microwave ablation device further comprises a handle 2, the proximal end of the microwave ablation needle 6 is connected to the handle 2, and the tracker 3 is arranged on the sleeve 5 at a position close to the handle 2, so that interference between the tracker 3 and a human body when the sleeve 5 is inserted into the human body can be avoided.
As shown in fig. 3, an embodiment of the present invention provides a navigation positioning method of a microwave ablation device, which is suitable for positioning the microwave ablation device in the foregoing embodiment, and the method includes:
s101, acquiring a first spatial position of a tracker in a camera coordinate system, wherein the tracker comprises a plurality of non-collinear optical markers.
In this embodiment, taking an infrared navigation camera as an example, taking a central position of the infrared navigation camera as an origin, establishing a camera coordinate system, actively transmitting infrared rays to a tracker by the infrared navigation camera, reflecting each optical marker in the tracker after receiving the infrared rays, and detecting the infrared rays reflected by the optical markers by the infrared navigation camera to obtain spatial position coordinates of each optical marker under the camera coordinate system. The optical marker has at least three.
S102, calculating position conversion data according to the first space position and the second space positions of the plurality of optical markers under the tracker coordinate system.
In this embodiment, since the optical marker of the microwave ablation device is fixedly mounted on the sleeve 5 at a position close to the handle, and the position of the emission window 51 on the sleeve 5 is also fixed, the distance between the optical marker and the emission window of the sleeve can be measured in advance, i.e., the distance between the two is known. In addition, the coordinate system is established with the center of the tracker 3 composed of a plurality of optical markers as the origin (or with one of the two optical markers that are the same as the sleeve axis as the origin), the spatial position of each optical marker in the tracker 3 coordinate system, that is, the second spatial position, can be calculated from the origin position of the tracker 3, in other words, the spatial position coordinates of each optical marker in the tracker 3 coordinate system are known before step S102 is performed. The conversion data of the two coordinate systems are calculated according to the first spatial position of the optical marker under the coordinate system of the camera 1 and the second spatial position of each optical marker under the coordinate system of the tracker 3 acquired in the step S101.
In the above and in the following description, the first spatial position represents a spatial position under the camera coordinate system, and the second spatial position represents a spatial position under the tracker coordinate system.
S103, calculating an emission window direction vector under a tracker coordinate system according to the second spatial position of the optical marker of the first set group, wherein the method specifically comprises the following steps:
determining a first set of optical markers from the spacing of each set of optical markers in the plurality of non-collinear optical markers;
And determining the direction vector of the emission window under the coordinate system of the tracker according to the second space position of the optical marker of the first set group.
In this embodiment, taking four optical markers as an example, the four optical markers are equally divided into two groups, because the four optical markers are arranged according to a certain criterion when being set, the distance between each optical marker is different, after the respective coordinates under the camera 1 coordinate system are obtained, the distance between each optical marker is calculated, the set group to which the optical marker belongs is distinguished according to the distance, in this embodiment, the direction of the connecting line between the two optical markers in the first set group is the same as the direction of the emission window 51, and the direction of the connecting line between the two optical markers in the second set group is the same as the axial direction of the sleeve 5.
In other embodiments, there may be one common optical marker in the first set and the second set, i.e. one optical marker forms the first set and the second set with the other two optical markers, respectively.
S104, calculating the direction vector of the emission window in the camera coordinate system according to the direction vector of the emission window in the tracker coordinate system and the position conversion data.
In this embodiment, the direction vector of the emission window 51 is calculated by using the conversion relationship between the tracker 3 coordinate system and the camera 1 coordinate system.
The application utilizes the conversion relation between the tracker 3 coordinate system and the camera 1 coordinate system to calculate the direction vector of the emission window 51 under the camera 1 coordinate system, and can accurately calculate the direction of the emission window 51 in the camera 1 coordinate system, which is helpful for more accurately determining the position and the direction of the emission window 51 in the camera visual field, realizes the real-time detection of the position and the injection direction of the emission window of the microwave ablation needle under the camera, and can accurately perform the directional control of microwave ablation energy emission.
In a preferred embodiment, S102: calculating conversion data according to the first space position and the second space positions of the plurality of optical markers in the tracker coordinate system by using a preset group of formulas, wherein the conversion data comprises a rotation matrix and a displacement vector:
Where x c、yc、zc denotes the spatial position coordinates of the optical marker in the camera coordinate system, R denotes the rotation matrix, x w、xw、xw denotes the spatial position coordinates of the optical marker in the tracker coordinate system, and T denotes the translation vector.
In this embodiment, the coordinates of one coordinate system can be converted to another coordinate system through a rotation and translation process, and a rotation matrix R and a translation vector T are generally used to describe the coordinate system, where R is an orthogonal matrix, so, taking three optical markers as an example, the coordinates of the three optical markers in the tracker 3 coordinate system and the camera 1 coordinate system are substituted into the above coordinate system to solve the rotation matrix R and the translation vector T. By calculating the conversion data between the two coordinate systems, the data conversion and the coordinate system registration between different coordinate systems can be realized.
In a preferred embodiment, S103: the emission window direction vector in the camera coordinate system is calculated using the following formula:
Where n 0′(a0′,b0′,c0') represents the transmit window direction vector in the camera coordinate system and n 0(a0,b0,c0) represents the transmit window direction vector in the tracker coordinate system.
In this embodiment, a point on a straight line may be represented by a coordinate (x, y, z), and the direction of the straight line may be represented by a unit direction vector, which is also in the form of a coordinate (a, b, c), representing the vector from the origin to the point, and thus, the emission window direction vector may be represented as n 0(a0,b0,c0 'in the tracker coordinate system, the emission window direction vector may be represented as n 0′(a0′,b0′,c0' in the camera coordinate system, and, in the tracker coordinate system, the sleeve axis direction vector may be represented as n 1(a1,b1,c1 ') and the sleeve axis direction vector may be represented as n 1′(a1′,b1′,c1') in the camera coordinate system. Since the direction vector of the emission window direction can also be obtained by the coordinate conversion relationship, the above relationship also exists for the direction of the emission window in the camera coordinate system, and the emission window direction vector in the tracker coordinate system is converted into the camera coordinate system according to the known rotation matrix R and translation vector T.
In one embodiment, after calculating the emission window direction vector under the camera coordinate system, further comprising:
and calculating the spatial position of the sleeve tip and the central spatial position of the emission window in the camera coordinate system according to the spatial position of the sleeve tip and the central spatial position of the emission window in the tracker coordinate system and the position conversion data.
According to the coordinates of the central space position of the transmitting window and the coordinates of the spatial position of the tip of the sleeve, the distance between the tip of the sleeve and the middle position of the transmitting window can be obtained, the distance between the middle position of the transmitting window and the tip of the sleeve is designed to be not less than 8mm, so that the tip of the microwave ablation needle corresponds to the transmitting window when the microwave ablation needle is inserted into the sleeve, microwave ablation energy emitted by the tip of the microwave ablation needle can be emitted from the transmitting window, and the phenomenon that the microwave ablation energy cannot be emitted normally due to the fact that the position of the tip of the microwave ablation needle does not correspond to the position of the transmitting window is avoided.
In addition, since the sleeve 5 cannot be known about its specific position after entering the human body, when the sleeve tip space position and the emission window center space position under the tracker 3 coordinate system are known, the sleeve tip and emission window center coordinates are converted under the camera coordinate system according to the conversion data to provide the operator with the specific positions of the microwave ablation needle 6 and the emission window 51, thereby realizing precise ablation.
