Description

一种非接触固定式荧光分子断层成像方法及装置 技术领域
本发明涉及一种荧光分子成像方法及装置, 特别是关于一种非接触固定式 荧光分子断层成像方法及装置。 现有技术
焚光分子断层成像 (Fluorescence molecular tomography, 亦称为荣光分子层 析成像或荧光扩散光层析成像) 利用已在生物学和医学研究中大量使用的具有 特异性的荧光分子作为探针, 用于标记特定分子或细胞, 其对生物体内分子水 平的变化进行在体观测, 并通过图像重建提供目标的分布等信息, 从而克服了 平面成像的局限性, 进而获得了更多有关生物学、 医学行为的信息。 荧光分子 断层成像具有灵敏度较高、 快捷简便、 费用低、 通量相对高等优点, 其不仅支 持在体研究有关的分子事件, 而且满足二十一世纪系统化地观测生命过程的要 求。 快速的非接触式荧光分子断层成像可增加实验动物的存活率, 有利于构建 长时间段的实验动物模型, 从而提高了实验动物模型的可靠性, 因此对于生命 科学研究具有重要的现实意义。
美国哈佛大学分子影像研究中心对稳态荧光分子断层成像的研究工作具有 代表性,该组提出的早期形式一一光纤接触式的荧光分子断层成像装置 (RALPH WEISSLEDER 等, Shedding light onto live molecular targets, 《 NATURE MEDICINE)), 2003: 123-128), 该装置采用成像腔, 实验时将动物浸泡在匹配 液中, 传光光纤接触成像腔。 该成像方法获取的激发光源-探测器数据集较小, 激发光源探测器数据对仅为 102-103对, 导致了重建图像的质量较差。 其后, 摒 弃了接触式光纤的耦合, 建立了非接触式荧光分子断层成像装置 (Nikolaos Deliolanis 等, Free-space fluorescence molecular tomography utilizing 360° geometry projections , 《OPTICS LETTERS》, 2007:382-384)。 如图 7所示, 将 实验动物体 111置于旋转台 112上,激发光源 113发出的激光在实验动物体 111 横断面上进行扫描, 在实验动物体 111的另一侧放置 CCD相机 114, 直接拍摄 实验动物体 111,非接触地获得实验动物体 111的边界上荧光信号强度信息的一 系列高空间分辨率的图像。在相机 114前有一荧光滤光片 115,用于滤除激发光, 只让荧光通过进入相机 114。 虽然此方法获得较大数据集, 激发光源-探测器数 据对可达到 106, 但是因该方法所采用的相机的视场、 景深、 曝光时间与生物组 织的散射特性等因素的影响, 每次只能获取小动物体边界上局部较小范围内的 荧光信号图像, 所获得荧光信号图像中可用的激发光源 -探测器数据对少, 并且 数据集的有效性较差,有效数据集较小。为了全角度获取实验动物体边界上 360 °荧光信号的、 有效的大数据集, 以提高重建图像的质量, 须进行旋转实验动物 111, 小间隔(每隔 N度成像一次)地曝光成像, 但该种方法会导致成像次数 M (M=360/N) 多, 从而获取系列荧光图像需要的时间长。
骆清铭等提出了一种非接触旋转式扩散荧光层析成像系统 (申请号: 200710053739.9, 200720087917.5 ), 在该系统中实验动物体 111 固定于固定夹 上, 步进电机带动 CCD相机 114和半导体激光器围绕实验动物旋转, 以获得实 验动物体边界上 360°全角度的荧光信号。 与上述旋转小动物方式的荧光分子断 层成像系统一样, 该系统存在同样的不足之处, 也是获取系列荧光图像需要的 时间过长。
在现有的非接触式荧光分子断层成像中, CCD相机 114与激发光源 113必 须和实验动物体 111相对旋转, 以获得实验动物体 111边界上 360°全角度荧光 信号, 如果系统成像时间长, 不但影响了实验动物体 111 的存活, 不利于构建 在体长时段的小动物模型, 而且实验成像效率低, 难以实现高通量实验, 限制 了荧光分子断层成像的应用。 发明内容
针对上述问题, 本发明的目的是提供一种成像速度快、 成像质量高的非接 触固定式荧光分子断层成像方法及装置。
为实现上述目的, 本发明采取以下技术方案: 一种非接触固定式荧光分子 断层成像 法, 其特征在于: 设置一包括激发光源、 光切换部件、 多根传光光 纤、 多个光学镜头、 传像光纤和探测器的成像装置, 将多根传光光纤和多个光 学镜头分别设置在被测物体的周围; 通过计算机控制光切换部件, 将激发光源 发出的激发光通过任一传光光纤照射到被测物体上, 并通过各光学镜头将被测 物体激发出的荧光成像在传像光纤的各分叉端, 然后通过传像光纤的复合端传 输给设置在传像光纤出光口处的探测器, 依次通过光切换部件将激发光切换至 不同位置的传光光纤, 重复上述的荧光信号获取过程, 实现全角度获取被测物 体边界上 360°荧光信号。
在所述探测器的前端设置有一荧光滤光片。
在各所述光学镜头的前端设置一荧光滤光片。
在所述光切换部件的前端设置有一激发光滤光片。
实现上述方法的装置包括设置在被测物体的周围的多根传光光纤和多个光 学镜头, 各所述光学镜头的成像平面处分别设置有一传像光纤的分叉端, 所述 传像光纤复合端的出光口处设置有一探测器; 各所述传光光纤的另一端共同连 接一个光切换部件, 所述光切换部件的进光侧设置有一激发光源。
所述探测器的前端设置有一荧光滤光片
各所述镜头的前端设置一荧光滤光片。
所述激发光源为一波长为 671纳米、输出功率为 200毫瓦的半导体激光器。 所述光切换部件的前端设置有一激发光滤光片。
所述激发光源为一 150瓦的卤钨灯。
本发明由于采取以上技术方案, 其具有以下优点: 1、 本发明方法是将传光 光纤和镜头间隔固定在被测物体周围, 通过计算机控制光切换部件, 将激发光 依次切换到设置在不同角度的传光光纤上, 以照射被测物体激发产生荧光, 因 此无论是被测物体, 还是荧光成像设备都是固定非接触式设置的, 与现有技术 相比, 系统运行稳定, 可以大范围、 非接触并固定式地激发被测物体内荧光物 质的发光, 获取更多稳定的荧光信号。 2、 本发明由于是通过计算机控制光切换 部件, 因此可以通过增加传光光纤和传像光纤的数量, 提取更多有效的激发光 源一探测器数据对, 构建更大的激发光源一探测器数据集, 提高重建图像的质 量。 3、 本发明方法是将激发光源发出的激发光经光切换部件切换入相应的传光 光纤, 由传光光纤导引至不同位置, 因此可以通过计算机实现快速切换激发光 入射点,提高了成像速度。 4、本发明由于在被测物体周围设置了多部光学镜头, 每一个光学镜头仅拍摄物体的一部分, 因此可以缩短拍摄距离, 将光学镜头的 光圈幵到最大, 使更多的被测物体的荧光信号通过光学镜头进入探测器, 从而 缩短了曝光时间, 进一步提高了成像速度。 本发明能够 360°全角度、 非接触固 定地釆集被测物体的荧光信号, 并且成像效率、 质量高。 附图说明

实施例 1 :
如图 4、 图 5所示, 本实施例的装置包括一设置在被测物体 7的周围的 24 根传光光纤 31〜324和 4个光学镜头 41〜44,在各光学镜头 41〜44的成像平面 处分别设置有一传像光纤 5的分叉端,传像光纤 51〜54复合端的出光口处设置 有一探测器 6; 各传光光纤 31〜324的另一端共同连接一个光切换部件 2, 光切 换部件 2 同时连接一计算机, 用于接收计算机的指令, 以将激发光切换到任一 传光光纤 31〜324。 在光切换部件 2的进光侧设置有一激发光源 1, 在光切换部 件 2的前端设置有一激发光滤光片 10, 这样使能够激发被测物体 7内荧光物质 发光波段的激发光进入光切换部件 2,而滤除其它杂光。同时在各光学镜头 41〜 44的前端分别设置了一个荧光滤光片 11, 用于滤除激发光等干扰, 仅使荧光进 入光学镜头 41〜44内。
上述实施例中, 激发光源 1可以采用一 150瓦的鹵钨灯光源, 切换部件 2 可以采用一现成的切换器, 传光光纤 31〜324可以选用玻璃光纤或石英光纤。 光学镜头 41〜44采用四个光圈 Ω.0的镜头,且光学镜头采光面朝向被测物体 7。 传像光纤 51〜54的另一端集束成一复合端 13 (如图 4所示)。 探测器 6是一个 相机, 相机可以是数码相机, 也可以是其它成像装置。
本实施例使用时, 首先来自激发光源 1的激发光经激发滤光片 10滤光后, 到达光切换部件 2, 通过计算机控制光切换部件 2, 将激发光通过任一传光光纤 31〜324照射到被测物体 7上, 通过各光学镜头 41〜44将被测物体 7激发出的 荧光经过荧光滤光片 11后,成像在传像光纤的各分叉端 81〜84,然后通过传像 光纤的复合端 9传输给设置在传像光纤 51〜54出光口处的探测器 6, 依次通过 光切换部件 2将激发光切换至不同位置的传光光纤 31〜324,重复上述的荧光信 号获取过程, 实现全角度获取被测物体 7边界上 360°荧光信号。
实施例 2:
如图 6所示, 本实施例的装置大部分与实施例 1相同, 但是本实施例中的 激发光源 1采用一波长 671纳米、 输出功率 200毫瓦的半导体激光器, 因此在 光切换部件 2的前端不用设置激发光滤光片 10。本实施例中的传光光纤 3为 12 根, 也可以更多或更少。 另外设置在光学镜头 41〜44前端的各荧光滤光片 11 也可以不设置, 而仅将一个荧光滤光片 11设置在探测器 6前端。
本实施例使用时, 首先通过计算机控制光切换部件 2, 将来自激发光源 1 的激发光通过任一传光光纤 31〜312照射到被测物体 7上, 并通过各光学镜头 41〜44将被测物体 7激发出的荧光成像在传像光纤的各分叉端 81〜84,然后通 过传像光纤的复合端 9经过荧光滤光片 11滤除激发光后, 传输给设置在传像光 纤 51〜54出光口处的探测器 6。 计算机通过光切换部件 2依次将激发光切换至 不同位置的传光光纤 31〜312,重复上述的荧光信号获取过程, 实现全角度获取 被测物体 7边界上 360°荧光信号。
上述各实施例中, 激发滤光片 10和荧光滤光片 11均是根据被测物体 Ί内 的荧光物质的激发波长不同, 来选择不同的滤光片。 光学镜头 4与传像光纤 5 上的分叉端 8的数目相同, 但该数目可以根据需要进行选择。
上述各实施例中, 各部件的结构、 设置位置、 及其连接都是可以有所变化 的, 在本发明技术方案的基础上, 对个别部件进行的改进和等同变换, 不应排 除在本发明的保护范围之外。
