具升降機構之全乳房超音波影像擷取裝置Full breast ultrasound image capturing device with lifting mechanism

本創作係為一種具升降機構之全乳房超音波影像擷取裝置,特別是一種利用升降機構,使該薄膜貼靠該患者乳房,讓全乳房自動且均勻地進行掃描之具升降機構之全乳房超音波影像擷取裝置。The present invention is a full breast ultrasound image capturing device with a lifting mechanism, in particular, a whole breast with a lifting mechanism that uses the lifting mechanism to make the film abut against the patient's breast, allowing the whole breast to be automatically and uniformly scanned. Ultrasonic image capture device.

依據美國疾病管制中心的資料顯示,乳癌為女性最常見的癌症之一,同時也是女性致死率僅次於肺癌的癌症,因此乳癌已成為第五大癌症。According to the US Centers for Disease Control, breast cancer is one of the most common cancers among women, and it is also the second leading cause of cancer in women, so breast cancer has become the fifth largest cancer.

2012年時,世界上已有約五十二萬兩千人位患者因乳癌而過世,從全世界罹患乳癌的女性人數可以發現,由於飲食西化,在亞洲東部地區罹患乳癌的女性人數有逐年增加的趨勢。因此,美國預防服務工作小組建議年齡在50至74歲之間的女性,需要每兩年定期進行一次乳房攝影檢查。In 2012, about 522,000 people in the world died of breast cancer. The number of women suffering from breast cancer from all over the world can be found that the number of women with breast cancer in eastern Asia has increased year by year due to westernization of diet. the trend of. Therefore, the US Preventive Services Task Force recommends that women between the ages of 50 and 74 need to have a mammogram every two years.

以乳房攝影提早偵測乳癌的方式已相當的普及化,乳房攝影係藉由低劑量X光透視乳房組織,以進行造影分析,然而,X光乳房攝影有游離輻射的疑慮,因此須對受測者限定使用的輻射劑量。The way to detect breast cancer early by mammography has become quite popular. Mammography uses low-dose X-rays to view breast tissue for angiography. However, X-ray mammography has concerns about free radiation and must be tested. The radiation dose used is limited.

此外,X光乳房攝影因乳房緻密度不同,而可能出現偽陰性結果,另一缺點則為乳房攝影因機器壓迫乳房,容易造成檢查過程的不適感。In addition, X-ray mammography may have a false negative result due to different densities of the breast, and another disadvantage is that the mammography is caused by the machine pressing the breast, which is liable to cause discomfort during the examination.

而利用超音波診斷,不但不需要使用輻射,也沒有其他不良的生物反應,而是以一個更安全的方式進行造影。高頻音波從探頭傳入身體後,經反射或散射回來後由探頭接收,接收之音波轉為電子訊號,並經由系統轉換後,提供影像以進行判讀。Ultrasound diagnosis, not only does not require the use of radiation, nor other adverse biological reactions, but a more safe way to conduct imaging. After the high-frequency sound wave is transmitted from the probe to the body, it is reflected or scattered back and received by the probe. The received sound wave is converted into an electronic signal, and after being converted by the system, the image is provided for interpretation.

回傳之音波依組織的物理特性,如組織密度不同而有影響,因此超音波可應用於不同種類的組織,如乳房中充滿黏液之囊腫或固體組織(腫瘤),不同於X光乳房攝影時只能呈現白色的組織影像。綜上所示,乳房超音波常被用於檢測高緻密度乳房之輔助成像工具。The echoes are echoed according to the physical characteristics of the tissue, such as different tissue densities, so the ultrasound can be applied to different kinds of tissues, such as mucus-filled cysts or solid tissues (tumors) in the breast, unlike X-ray mammography. Only white tissue images can be rendered. In summary, breast ultrasound is often used as an auxiliary imaging tool for detecting high-density breasts.

先前案例中,有針對乳癌篩檢之手持式超音波掃描器,偵測方法主要為超音波技術,同樣需要仰賴人力完成檢查,而且,習知之超音波掃描器由於沒有升降裝置,加上患者乳房大小不一,負荷程度不同,造成較小乳房貼靠不完整,而有診斷失誤的問題,影響掃描的穩定度。In the previous case, there was a handheld ultrasonic scanner for breast cancer screening. The detection method was mainly ultrasonic technology, and it was also necessary to rely on human power to complete the inspection. Moreover, the conventional ultrasonic scanner has no lifting device and patient breast. Different sizes and different loading levels result in incomplete abutment of small breasts, and problems with diagnosis errors affect the stability of scanning.

因此,如何設計出一使該薄膜貼靠該患者乳房,提升掃描的穩定度之具升降機構之全乳房超音波影像擷取裝置,即成為相關設備廠商以及研發人員所共同期待的目標。Therefore, how to design a full-breasted ultrasound image capturing device with a lifting mechanism that makes the film adhere to the patient's breast and improve the stability of the scanning has become a common expectation of related equipment manufacturers and developers.

請參考圖2、圖4、圖5、圖9以及圖11所示,開始掃描時,該薄膜組件119從該框架113升起至該薄膜框架118的突出手柄,並將超音波傳導膠以足夠耦合的用量,塗抹於該薄膜119兩面。在該薄膜119背面中央印有一環形記號,方便病患趴下後將乳房對準掃描中心,讓該攝影機11700開始導引影像進行掃描。Referring to FIG. 2, FIG. 4, FIG. 5, FIG. 9 and FIG. 11, when the scanning is started, the film assembly 119 is lifted from the frame 113 to the protruding handle of the film frame 118, and the ultrasonic conductive adhesive is sufficient. The amount of coupling is applied to both sides of the film 119. A ring mark is printed on the center of the back of the film 119 to facilitate the patient to align the breast to the scanning center after the arm is lowered, and the camera 11700 starts guiding the image for scanning.

請參考圖9以及圖12所示,該薄膜119更包括一薄膜水袋1190以及一突出結構1191,該薄膜水袋1190設置於該薄膜119上,但本創作並不以此為限,在本創作之其它實施例,該薄膜水袋1190設置於該薄膜119下方,甚至該薄膜水袋1190可直接取代該薄膜119。Referring to FIG. 9 and FIG. 12, the film 119 further includes a film water bag 1190 and a protruding structure 1191. The film water bag 1190 is disposed on the film 119, but the present invention is not limited thereto. In other embodiments of the creation, the film water bag 1190 is disposed under the film 119, and even the film water bag 1190 can directly replace the film 119.

該薄膜水袋1190收容有水或其它波傳導介質,較佳地,可為去氣水,亦即一種含空氣很少的水。由於超音波探頭的介質是水,假如使用一般自來水,內含的空化核數量非常多,當高強度超音波經過時,極容易產生氣泡或空蝕效應而產生遮蔽超音波傳遞現象。因此該薄膜水袋1190內含有的水必須經過脫氣處理為去氣水。The film water bag 1190 contains water or other wave conducting medium, preferably degassed water, that is, a water containing little air. Since the medium of the ultrasonic probe is water, if the general tap water is used, the number of cavitation nuclei contained therein is very large, and when the high-intensity ultrasonic wave passes, the bubble or cavitation effect is easily generated to cause the shadowing ultrasonic transmission phenomenon. Therefore, the water contained in the film water bag 1190 must be degassed to be deaerated water.

該突出結構1191設置於該薄膜水袋1190中央,方便病患趴下後將乳房對準掃描中心。The protruding structure 1191 is disposed at the center of the film water bag 1190 to facilitate alignment of the breast to the scanning center after the patient has fallen down.

在本創作之一較佳實施例中,該探頭固定器1172係以一塑料晶體材料或藻膠填充。In a preferred embodiment of the present invention, the probe holder 1172 is filled with a plastic crystal material or algin.

當本創作之具升降機構之全乳房超音波影像擷取裝置1進行乳房環狀掃描時,超音波影像會依序記入並存取於該超音波系統2中,再利用網路、USB或RS232接頭,將影像傳輸至該系統控制電腦141。控制台之命令可藉由接頭發送,以同步該線性陣列探頭1170在該機械驅動系統11內的動作和所擷取之影像。本創作的另一項實施例中,時間內影像可根據該線性陣列探頭1170之不同位置傳送至該系統控制電腦141。When the whole breast ultrasound image capturing device 1 of the creation and lifting mechanism performs the breast ring scanning, the ultrasonic image is sequentially recorded and accessed in the ultrasonic system 2, and then the network, USB or RS232 is used. A connector transmits the image to the system control computer 141. Commands of the console can be sent by the connector to synchronize the motion of the linear array probe 1170 within the mechanical drive system 11 and the captured image. In another embodiment of the present creation, time images may be transmitted to the system control computer 141 according to different locations of the linear array probe 1170.

案例中的多半徑環形掃描需覆蓋乳房總表面積,再將相同旋轉角度所拍攝之畫面拼接後,便可提供作為簡單診斷之用。為避免乳房掃描出現任何漏失,有重疊掃描之必要,可利用改變掃描範圍來進行重疊掃描。重疊掃描的角度並不是本創作針對之重點,而是取決於使用者的設定與操作使用。The multi-radius circular scan in the case needs to cover the total surface area of the breast, and then stitch the pictures taken at the same rotation angle to provide a simple diagnosis. In order to avoid any leakage of the breast scan, it is necessary to overlap the scan, and the overlap scan can be performed by changing the scan range. The angle of overlapping scanning is not the focus of this creation, but depends on the user's settings and operational use.

透過上述之結構,本創作係揭露一個簡單結構,可利用升降機構,使該薄膜貼靠該患者乳房,提供自動化全乳房超音波成像技術,此裝置強大但又輕量,便於攜帶和運輸。此外,大量的掃描影像可儲存於磁碟陣列,提供放射科醫師或電腦輔助檢測來早期偵測乳癌。再者,其結構型態並非所屬技術領域中之人士所能輕易思及而達成者,實具有新穎性以及進步性無疑。Through the above structure, the creation reveals a simple structure that utilizes a lifting mechanism to hold the film against the patient's breast, providing an automated full breast ultrasound imaging technique that is powerful yet lightweight and easy to carry and transport. In addition, a large number of scanned images can be stored on a disk array, providing radiologists or computer-aided detection for early detection of breast cancer. Moreover, its structural form is not easily reached by those skilled in the art, and it is novel and progressive.
