Description

Cerebrovascular system function and brain recirculation dynamic analytical tool

Technical field

This utility model belongs to field of medical technology, specifically a kind of novel cerebrovascular system function and brain recirculation dynamic analytical tool.

Background technology

Atherosclerosis is a kind of chronic disease of serious harm human health, its feature is under tremulous pulse and ramose arterial wall inner membrance and inner membrance the lipid calmness to be arranged, breed down with middle level smooth muscle cell migration to inner membrance simultaneously, make intimal thickening, form the speckle of yellow or lark shape such as medicated porridge sample material.In recent years, along with China's economic construction is growing, living standards of the people improve constantly, the trend that the sickness rate of primary disease is significantly increased in China.According to the postmortem result, in 40～49 years old crowd, the recall rate of coronary artery and atherosclerosis of aorta pathological changes is respectively 58.36% and 88.31%, and increases with advancing age and gradually.

Atherosclerosis is a kind of disease of general, but atheromatous plaque only appears at some specific angiosomes of vascular system, and carotid artery vascular is exactly one of easy important area that forms of atherosclerosis.Carotid artery system is being supplied before the cerebral hemisphere 3/5 blood by internal carotid artery, anterior cerebral artery and middle cerebral artery.Therefore, carotid arterial atherosclerosis will have a strong impact on the cerebrovascular blood supply of distal end and cause serious consequence.For example, cause ischemic cerebrovasculars such as cerebral ischemia, brain atrophy owing to atherosclerosis causes carotid narrow meeting, the atheromatous plaque that comes off also forms embolus easily, thereby causes cerebral embolism.A large amount of studies show that, carotid arterial atherosclerosis not only with the very confidential relation that has of many cerebrovascular, it also has good dependency with some cardiovascular disease such as coronary heart disease etc.In view of top reason, carotid artery vascular becomes one of focus of atherosclerosis study.

Progression of atherosclerosis is to certain degree, when the obvious pathological changes of organ is especially arranged diagnosis not difficult, but early diagnosis is not easy very much.Because progression of atherosclerosis become irreversible to late period, often can only take stopgap measures and can not effect a permanent cure for the operative treatment of some angiostenosiss that form owing to atherosclerosis etc., relapse rate is very high.Therefore then seem extremely important for atherosclerotic early diagnosis and to the research of the mechanism of its formation.

Modern study generally acknowledges that the blood vessel wall shearing stress plays main decisive action to atherosclerotic diseased region, scope and degree.A large amount of experiments and research show that also the environment of the low shearing stress of pulsation will cause atherosclerotic generation.Therefore no matter the shearing stress index of accurate and AT detection carotid artery arteries and veins is for atherosclerotic prevention, early diagnosis, and still physiology, the pathological research for cardiovascular and cerebrovascular disease all has crucial meaning.

Present cerebral circulation analyser both domestic and external can only carry out computational analysis to the kinetic parameter of reflection cerebral circulation function, can not be to causing the main cause of cerebrovascular disease---and atherosclerosis is carried out early stage diagnosis; And aspect the calculating of kinetic parameter, scarcely super the or super blood vessels caliber that detects of M of the A that detection or service precision are not high has brought very big error to analysis result.

Summary of the invention

Technical problem to be solved in the utility model is to design a kind of novel heart and brain cycle analysis instrument that can carry out comprehensive comprehensive diagnos to cerebrovascular atherosclerosis and brain recirculation dynamic characteristic, detects the not comprehensive and coarse characteristics of index to overcome existing brain recirculation dynamic analyser.

This utility model uses the horizontal and vertical tomoscan iconography index of carotid artery vascular and the shearing stress index maximum τ of carotid artery vascular wall _Max, meansigma methods τ _Mean, minima τ _Min, and the asymptotic value τ in relaxing period latter stage _dDeng, as the analysis indexes of cerebrovascular atherosclerosis degree and easy-suffering level.Iconography index wherein, comprise that blood vessel wall media thickness and smooth degree can judge the atherosclerosis degree, the shearing stress index can judge that the low shearing stress of vibration will easily cause atherosclerotic formation to atherosclerotic easy-suffering level.

Cerebral hemodynamic parameters such as operating characteristic impedance Z c, Peripheral resistance R, dynamic resistance DR, critical pressure Cp and blood flow rate and blood flow parameter are as the analysis indexes of brain recirculation dynamic.The physiological significance of each parameter is as follows:

1) characteristic impedance Zc

The impedance that the expression pulse wave is run into when a direction is propagated in vascular bed, it is that the reflection patient detects the soft or hard degree of blood vessel constantly.Clinically, arteriosclerosis, hypertension and age increase etc. can cause that Zc raises unusually.

2) Peripheral resistance R

The resistance that expression blood flows and run in the cerebrovascular bed is a directly pointer of reflection blood mobile unimpeded situation in brain peripheral blood vessel bed.Blood vessel embolism, infraction, narrow, blood viscosity increases that R will be increased.

3) dynamic resistance DR

The relation of the blood pressure change amount of expression cerebrovascular system and the corresponding change amount of blood flow.DR reflection cerebral blood flow self regulatory function is blocked relevant with the cerebral arteriosclerosis degree with cerebrovascular.The cerebrovascular regulatory function is poor more, and cerebral arteries is sclerosis more, and DR is big more.

4) critical pressure Cp

Expression starts blood mobile minimum pressure in blood vessel, and it has reflected cerebrovascular blocking, and intracranial hypertension, blood viscosity increase and angiemphraxis etc. cause that many factors of vascular occlusion can cause that all Cp increases.

The index that this utility model detected is closely related.For example, the indexs such as characteristic impedance Zc in the brain recirculation dynamic index also can be judged atherosclerosis to a certain extent.Some index and the cerebral circulation function of shearing stress also have certain dependency.Therefore, the conjoint analysis of two groups of indexs can comprehensive and accurately be carried out early prediction and diagnosis to cerebrovascular disease.

The technical scheme of this utility model technical solution problem is as follows:

A kind of cerebrovascular system function and brain recirculation dynamic analytical tool, comprise detection system, acquisition analysis system and data storage and output system, it is characterized in that, described detection system comprises a blood viscosity detection module that is used to detect patient's blood viscosity, the horizontal and vertical tomoscan image of a carotid artery vascular that is used to detect the patient and the Type B ultrasound detection module of blood vessels caliber, the physical stress detection module of a blood pressure waveform that is used to detect the patient and one are used to detect patient's the flow velocity waveforms of cranium arteria carotis externa and the continuous wave Doppler flow velocity waveforms detection module of numerical value; Described acquisition analysis system comprises computer, the analog signal conversion of detection system acquisition is become A/D card, image pick-up card, passive backplane and the analytical calculation software module of digital signal; Described A/D card, image pick-up card and computer motherboard are by the ISA slot parallel connection on the passive backplane.
