基于线性相关系数来重构三维微血流分布的方法及装置Method and device for reconstructing three-dimensional micro-blood flow distribution based on linear correlation coefficient

技术领域technical field

本发明涉及活体组织中微血流成像技术领域,特别是一种基于线性相关系数来重构三维微血流分布的方法及装置。The invention relates to the technical field of micro-blood flow imaging in living tissues, in particular to a method and device for reconstructing three-dimensional micro-blood flow distribution based on a linear correlation coefficient.

背景技术Background technique

人体组织和器官所需营养物质和氧气是通过血液循环输送的,而营养物质和氧气的交换是在毛细血管内进行的,并且微血流与人体的体温和血压等关键指标是相关联的,因此,对微血管的成像可以有助于对组织疾病诊断,如癌症,青光眼等。Nutrients and oxygen required by human tissues and organs are transported through blood circulation, while the exchange of nutrients and oxygen is carried out in capillaries, and micro-blood flow is related to key indicators such as body temperature and blood pressure. Therefore, imaging of microvessels can be helpful in the diagnosis of tissue diseases, such as cancer, glaucoma, etc.

光学相干层析术(Optical Coherence Tomography,OCT)是一种上世纪90年代提出的利用低相干光干涉成像的诊断技术。该技术具有高分辨率、无损伤和能够实时成像等优点。其中,频域相干层析术(Fourier Domain Optical Coherence Tomography,FDOCT)具有灵敏度高,噪声小和成像速度快等优点,所以FDOCT成为主要的研究方向之一。经过二十多年的发展,很多基于FDOCT系统的功能型OCT技术被人们提出。其中用于对人体血流速度成像的方法有相位分辨的多普勒OCT(PRODT)是一种不仅能够对组织中血管成像,还能根据两次连续A扫之间的相位信息精确的计算出血流速度值的方法。功率谱多普勒OCT和光学血管造影术(OMAG)是基于多普勒效应的额外的两种能够从组织信号中提取血流信号的方法,其中,功率谱多普勒OCT是通过分析运动粒子引起的总的后向散射光功率谱来实现提取血流动态信号的。而OMAG直接分析和处理一帧图像来提取血流信号的,这样可以减少由系统和样品引起的相位不稳定噪声。两种基于统计方差的方法来提取三维血流成像的方法是散斑方差(SVOCT)和相位方差(PVOCT)方法。SVOCT方法通过计算OCT样品强度信号中行间或帧间的方差来重构血流图像。PVOCT方法通过计算同一横向位置处连续多次B扫之间的相位差来重构血流图像,该方法已经被成功应用于眼科中,并且该方法能够对所有方向的血流信号进行成像。还有相关成像方法(cmOCT)利用连续两次B扫的结构信号中子窗口的相关系数来提取血流信号。Optical coherence tomography (Optical Coherence Tomography, OCT) is a diagnostic technique proposed in the 1990s using low-coherence light interference imaging. This technique has the advantages of high resolution, non-invasive and real-time imaging. Among them, frequency domain coherence tomography (Fourier Domain Optical Coherence Tomography, FDOCT) has the advantages of high sensitivity, low noise and fast imaging speed, so FDOCT has become one of the main research directions. After more than 20 years of development, many functional OCT technologies based on the FDOCT system have been proposed. Among them, the method used for imaging human blood flow velocity is phase-resolved Doppler OCT (PRODT), which can not only image blood vessels in tissues, but also accurately calculate the Method for blood velocity values. Power spectral Doppler OCT and optical angiography (OMAG) are two additional methods based on the Doppler effect that can extract blood flow signals from tissue signals. Among them, power spectral Doppler OCT is obtained by analyzing moving particle The resulting total backscattered optical power spectrum is used to extract blood flow dynamic signals. However, OMAG directly analyzes and processes a frame of images to extract blood flow signals, which can reduce phase instability noise caused by the system and samples. Two statistical variance-based methods to extract 3D blood flow imaging are the speckle variance (SVOCT) and phase variance (PVOCT) methods. The SVOCT method reconstructs blood flow images by calculating the variance between lines or frames in the intensity signal of OCT samples. The PVOCT method reconstructs blood flow images by calculating the phase difference between multiple consecutive B-scans at the same lateral position. This method has been successfully applied in ophthalmology, and this method can image blood flow signals in all directions. There is also a correlation imaging method (cmOCT) that uses the correlation coefficient of sub-windows in the structural signals of two consecutive B-scans to extract blood flow signals.

在现有的技术中,由于PRODT是根据运动粒子的多普勒效应来对血流进行成像的,所以该方法无法测量出运动方向与光束方向垂直的运动粒子的速度。功率谱多普勒OCT方法是通过分析光谱分布来成像的,因此对于小血流信号的灵敏度不够。OMAG方法中,需要一些相位补偿方法来补偿运动伪影,这增加了系统的复杂度,并且需要大量的后续信号处理的时间。SVOCT方法重构的血流图像会受血管阴影和样品抖动的影响。PVOCT方法需要在同一横向位置处采集多次的B扫信号,所以成像速度限制了该方法在临床中的应用。而cmOCT方法中,信噪比与相关窗口的大小成正比,但增大相关窗口会使得小血管图像模糊。In the existing technology, since PRODT images the blood flow according to the Doppler effect of the moving particles, this method cannot measure the velocity of the moving particles whose moving direction is perpendicular to the beam direction. The power spectral Doppler OCT method is imaged by analyzing the spectral distribution, so it is not sensitive enough for small blood flow signals. In the OMAG method, some phase compensation methods are needed to compensate the motion artifacts, which increases the complexity of the system and requires a lot of time for subsequent signal processing. The blood flow image reconstructed by SVOCT method will be affected by vessel shadow and sample shake. The PVOCT method needs to acquire multiple B-scan signals at the same lateral position, so the imaging speed limits the clinical application of this method. In the cmOCT method, the signal-to-noise ratio is proportional to the size of the correlation window, but increasing the correlation window will blur the image of small blood vessels.

具体实施方式Detailed ways

在介绍本发明的技术方案之前,先对本发明的构思做一分析如下:Before introducing the technical scheme of the present invention, the design of the present invention is analyzed as follows:

结合图1,CCD 15接收到的干涉信号经过傅里叶变换后的复解析信号可以表示为Combined with Fig. 1, the complex analysis signal after the Fourier transform of the interference signal received by the CCD 15 can be expressed as

其中,x,y,z表示笛卡尔坐标系,x轴表示快扫方向,y轴表示慢扫方向,z轴表示深度方向,A(x,y,z)表示样品的强度信号,表示由样品结构决定的初始相位信号。在慢扫方向的同一位置,系统连续采集两次B扫信号,在这两次B扫信号中,对静态组织信号来说,强度信号A(x,y,z)和相位信号没有变化,但是对于动态血流信号来说,两次B扫信号之间的强度信号好相位信号都有所改变。其中对于轴向速度分量,粒子的运动会引入一由于多普勒相应而引起的相位差;由于干涉信号中相位对于粒子位移的灵敏度比光源的中心波长还小很多,而血红细胞的直径为10微米左右,所以血红细胞的横向移动同样会引起复解析信号中相位的变化,并且该变化是随机的。所以公式1进一步表示为:Among them, x, y, z represent the Cartesian coordinate system, the x-axis represents the fast-scan direction, the y-axis represents the slow-scan direction, the z-axis represents the depth direction, A(x, y, z) represents the intensity signal of the sample, Indicates the initial phase signal determined by the sample structure. At the same position in the slow-scan direction, the system continuously collects two B-scan signals. In these two B-scan signals, for static tissue signals, the intensity signal A(x,y,z) and the phase signal There is no change, but for the dynamic blood flow signal, both the intensity signal and the phase signal between the two B-scan signals have changed. Among them, for the axial velocity component, the motion of the particle will introduce a phase difference due to the Doppler response; because the sensitivity of the phase in the interference signal to the particle displacement is much smaller than the central wavelength of the light source, and the diameter of the red blood cell is 10 microns Left and right, so the lateral movement of red blood cells will also cause a phase change in the complex analysis signal, and the change is random. So Equation 1 is further expressed as:

ΓΓ~~((xx,,ythe y,,zz))==AA((xx,,ythe y,,zz))·&Center Dot;expexp((22nkinki·&Center Dot;((δzδz++vv((xx,,ythe y,,zz))·&Center Dot;coscosθθ·&Center Dot;tt))))------((22))

其中,n表示样品的折射率,k表示波数,δz表示血红细胞在横向移动过程中引入的轴向位移的变化,v(x,y,z)表示血红细胞的运动速度,θ表示血红细胞运动方向与探测光束之间的夹角,t表示时间。根据静态组织信号和血流动态信号对复解析信号的影响,可以将慢扫方向上同一位置的两次B扫信号通过计算局部窗口线性相关系数的方法来提取动态信号,计算方法表示为:Among them, n represents the refractive index of the sample, k represents the wave number, δz represents the change of the axial displacement introduced by the red blood cell during the lateral movement, v(x, y, z) represents the movement speed of the red blood cell, and θ represents the movement of the red blood cell The angle between the direction and the detection beam, t represents the time. Complex analysis signal based on static tissue signal and blood flow dynamic signal The impact of the two B-scan signals at the same position in the slow-scan direction can be used to extract the dynamic signal by calculating the linear correlation coefficient of the local window. The calculation method is expressed as:

II((xx,,ythe y,,zz))==ΣΣpp==00MmΣΣqq==00NN[[ΓΓrr((xx++pp,,ythe y,,zz++qq))--ΓΓrr((xx..ythe y,,zz))‾‾]][[ΓΓrr((xx++pp,,ythe y++11,,zz++qq))--ΓΓrr((xx,,ythe y++11,,zz))‾‾]]ΣΣpp==00MmΣΣqq==00NN[[ΓΓrr((xx++pp,,ythe y,,zz++qq))--ΓΓrr((xx,,,,ythe y,,zz))‾‾]]22ΣΣpp==00MmΣΣqq==00NN[[ΓΓrr((xx++pp,,ythe y++11,,zz++qq))--ΓΓrr((xx,,ythe y++11,,zz))‾‾]]22ΓΓrr((xx,,ythe y,,zz))==realreal((ΓΓ~~((xx,,ythe y,,zz))))))------((33))

其中,M和N分别表示相关窗口横向和纵向的大小,p和q分别表示窗口内的像素序数,表示该窗口内实部信号的平均值,real(·)表示求复解析信号的实部。将相关窗口在xz截面内平移后可以得到一幅相关图像,其中相关系数的范围为0~±1,分别表示弱相关(动态血流信号)和强相关(静态组织信号)。Among them, M and N represent the horizontal and vertical sizes of the relevant window, respectively, and p and q represent the ordinal number of pixels in the window, respectively, Indicates the average value of the real part signal in the window, and real(·) means to find the real part of the complex analytical signal. After the correlation window is translated in the xz section, a correlation image can be obtained, and the correlation coefficient ranges from 0 to ±1, which respectively represent weak correlation (dynamic blood flow signal) and strong correlation (static tissue signal).

下面结合附图和具体实施方式对本发明做进一步说明。The present invention will be further described below in conjunction with the accompanying drawings and specific embodiments.

结合图1,本发明基于线性相关系数来重构三维微血流分布的装置,包括激光光源1、光纤耦合器2、第一准直透镜3、色散补偿棱镜4、第一汇聚透镜5、平面反射镜6、第二准直透镜7、X扫描振镜8、Y扫描振镜9、第二汇聚透镜10、被测组织11、第三准直透镜12、光栅13、傅里叶透镜14、CCD 15、信号处理系统16;1, the present invention reconstructs the three-dimensional micro-blood flow distribution device based on the linear correlation coefficient, including a laser light source 1, a fiber coupler 2, a first collimating lens 3, a dispersion compensation prism 4, a first converging lens 5, a plane Mirror 6, second collimating lens 7, X scanning vibrating mirror 8, Y scanning vibrating mirror 9, second converging lens 10, measured tissue 11, third collimating lens 12, grating 13, Fourier lens 14, CCD 15, signal processing system 16;
