Description

Photoacoustic Doppler blood flow velocity and blood oxygen content measuring system
Technical Field
The utility model relates to a velocity of flow measurement technical field specifically indicates a photoacoustic Doppler blood flow velocity and blood oxygen content measurement system.
Background
The photoacoustic doppler effect refers to a phenomenon in which when a light absorbing substance sample moving relative to an ultrasonic transducer absorbs light, an acoustic wave detected by the ultrasonic transducer has a doppler shift due to the photoacoustic effect and the doppler effect under illumination. Obtaining the average Doppler shift f by measurementdThe average flow velocity can be obtained by calculation
Figure DEST_PATH_GDA0002863766510000011
Where θ is the angle between the direction of blood flow and the axis of the ultrasound transducer, caIs the propagation velocity of the acoustic wave, f0The intensity modulation frequency of the continuous light wave.
The existing photoacoustic blood flow velocity measurement technology mainly comprises continuous wave photoacoustic Doppler flow velocity measurement, sine pulse wave photoacoustic Doppler flow velocity measurement, pulse wave photoacoustic Doppler flow velocity measurement and the like.
The laser source in the continuous wave photoacoustic Doppler flow velocity measurement is a sine continuous modulation wave, the used light source is the sine modulation continuous wave, and the Doppler frequency shift is extracted by demodulating an photoacoustic Doppler frequency shift signal and a reference signal through a phase-locked amplifier. And finally, storing the time domain signal into a computer through signal acquisition software, and carrying out FFT (fast Fourier transform) processing on the computer to obtain a photoacoustic Doppler frequency shift signal so as to calculate the flow velocity and the direction.
The laser source in the flow velocity measurement of the sine pulse wave photoacoustic Doppler is a sine pulse continuous modulation wave, a relatively flexible external modulation mode and high-sensitivity heterodyne detection are utilized, so that the range of measurable flow velocity is enlarged, the flow velocity and the position can be measured simultaneously, the compromise problem of measuring the axial position and the detectable maximum velocity can be relieved, and compared with a phase-locked measurement mechanism, the central frequency of the signal receiver can be changed and is not limited to direct current.
Pulsed wave photoacoustic doppler flow velocity measurements are excited with a pulsed laser. A pulse laser acoustic Doppler flow velocity measurement technique is excited by several optical pulse pairs, and the time frequency shift of the optical acoustic waveform pair is obtained by using a cross-correlation method, so that the velocity is estimated. Another pulse laser photoacoustic Doppler flow velocity measurement provides a new method for measuring the transverse flow velocity based on photoacoustic Doppler bandwidth broadening, the transverse flow velocity is determined by the geometric shape and the velocity of a probe beam, a three-dimensional structure and the flow velocity can be simultaneously carried out by utilizing pulse laser excitation and raster motor scanning, the Doppler bandwidth depends on the linear correlation of the flow velocity, and the flow velocity can be accurately measured.
In the continuous wave photoacoustic Doppler flow velocity measurement, due to the fact that photoacoustic signals are weak, the flow velocity which can be measured cannot be too fast, the Doppler frequency spectrum is widened and the peak value is increased along with the increase of the flow velocity, the measurement sensitivity is affected, and depth information between an ultrasonic transducer and particles cannot be obtained. The flow velocity measurement of the sine pulse wave photoacoustic Doppler uses sine pulse signals to modulate the light intensity of continuous waves, performs external modulation and heterodyne detection, uses lower laser power, generates weaker photoacoustic signals, has lower spectral resolution and poorer signal-to-noise ratio. A pulsed laser acoustic Doppler flow velocity measurement technique is excited by several optical pulse pairs, and the time shift of the optical acoustic waveform pair is obtained by using a cross-correlation method to estimate the velocity, however, the higher concentration of particles and the non-linear motion of the particles (turbulence and eddy) cause poor correlation, and the poorer the accuracy and precision of the velocity measurement. Another pulse laser photoacoustic Doppler flow velocity measurement provides a new method for measuring the transverse flow velocity based on photoacoustic Doppler bandwidth broadening, the transverse flow velocity is determined by the geometric shape and the velocity of a probe beam, the Doppler bandwidth depends on the linear correlation of the flow velocity by utilizing pulse laser excitation and raster motor scanning, the measurement precision of the flow velocity can be greatly influenced due to the low signal-to-noise ratio of tissues and flowing turbulence, and the measurement precision can be improved by correcting a model. If the difference between the photoacoustic signal and the noise is not large or the photoacoustic signal is smaller than the noise, the advantages of the digital signal processing and the phase locking technology cannot be fully utilized to accurately extract the required signal, so that it is difficult to accurately measure the flow velocity of blood and photoacoustic doppler flow velocity measurement of multiple wavelengths cannot be performed.
