一种血管识别方法及设备A blood vessel identification method and device

技术领域technical field

本发明属于医疗器械领域,具体涉及一种血管识别方法及设备。The invention belongs to the field of medical devices, and in particular relates to a blood vessel identification method and equipment.

背景技术Background technique

腹腔镜(英文名:Laparoscopic)是一种带有微型摄像头的医用器械,腹腔镜手术就是利用腹腔镜及其相关器械进行的手术:使用冷光源提供照明,将腹腔镜镜头(直径为3~10mm)插入腹腔内,运用数字摄像技术使腹腔镜镜头拍摄到的图像通过光导纤维传导至后级信号处理系统,并且实时显示在专用监视器上。然后医生通过监视器屏幕上所显示患者器官不同角度的图像,对病人的病情进行分析判断,并且运用特殊的腹腔镜器械进行手术。腹腔镜手术创伤小,并发症少,患者康复迅速,目前已在临床得到广泛应用,并且已成为未来手术的发展趋势。Laparoscope (English name: Laparoscopic) is a medical instrument with a miniature camera. Laparoscopic surgery is performed using laparoscope and related instruments: cold light source is used to provide illumination, and laparoscopic lens (diameter: 3-10mm) ) is inserted into the abdominal cavity, and digital camera technology is used to transmit the images captured by the laparoscopic lens to the post-stage signal processing system through the optical fiber, and display them on a dedicated monitor in real time. Then the doctor analyzes and judges the patient's condition through the images of different angles of the patient's organs displayed on the monitor screen, and uses special laparoscopic instruments to perform the operation. Laparoscopic surgery has less trauma, fewer complications, and rapid recovery of patients. It has been widely used in clinical practice and has become the development trend of future surgery.

腹腔镜创伤小,并发症少,患者康复迅速。自100年前被发明以来,就被越来越多的用在各种手术。在中国,经过二十多年的发展,开展腹腔镜手术的科室已涵盖普外,妇产,泌尿外科,肝胆外科等,很多县以上医院,厂矿医院,甚至乡镇医院已经开展了腹腔镜手术。我国目前的腹腔镜市场约310亿/年,市场容量巨大。2011年全球腹腔镜设备市场产值为69.68亿美元,2018年预计将达131.529亿美元。在中国,二级及以上医院都是腹腔镜潜在用户,目前中国二级及以上医院共有11673家(2010年数据)。根据2013年数据,可以看到外企占据了我国腹腔镜市场的绝对优势。同时也说明国产腹腔镜的发展潜力很大。Laparoscopy has less trauma, fewer complications, and patients recover quickly. Since it was invented 100 years ago, it has been used more and more in various surgeries. In China, after more than 20 years of development, the departments performing laparoscopic surgery have covered general surgery, obstetrics and gynecology, urology, hepatobiliary surgery, etc. Many hospitals above the county level, factories and mines hospitals, and even township hospitals have carried out laparoscopic surgery. my country's current laparoscopy market is about 31 billion per year, and the market capacity is huge. In 2011, the output value of the global laparoscopic equipment market was US$6.968 billion, and it is expected to reach US$13.1529 billion in 2018. In China, hospitals of grade II and above are all potential users of laparoscopy. Currently, there are 11,673 hospitals of grade II and above in China (2010 data). According to the data in 2013, it can be seen that foreign companies occupy the absolute advantage of my country's laparoscopy market. At the same time, it also shows that domestic laparoscopy has great potential for development.

在各种人体腔体内部进行检查、诊断、手术时,血管都是非常敏感的部位,明确血管的位置和走形,对医生非常有帮助。尤其是在做手术的时候,如果对血管的位置判断失误,损伤了血管,往往会导致严重的伤害。在外科手术尤其是微创手术日益发展的今天,腹腔镜手术携带其无可比拟的优势占据了主流位置。对于肿瘤切除要求的“骨骼化”,部分手术血管的“保护化”,无疑要求我们去寻找一种能够充分显示血管的一种设备。基于此,我们根据既往的研究情况,自助研发一种基于红外的内窥镜操作平台,其目的能够与常见的内窥镜进行分光显影的目的,做到对血管识别,易于医生术中应用的目的。本发明采用双光路系统,可见光光路部分并未进行太多改进,红外光路系统通过主动发射冷红外光线,根据血红蛋白与其他组织对红外光线的吸收比率不同,进而识别血管的位置与形态,结合计算机辅助技术,对血管进行清洗的显露,在术中辅助手术和诊断。通过双光路系统,能够极大提升手术成功率,降低患者术中出现血管损伤的风险,同时能够辅助医生进行诊断,做到依据血管走形决定相应的手术。本项目从最初的构思到目前的逐步形成一个思路以来,与多家企业进行了相关的沟通与交流。目前,项目集成了光学、设备基础、自动化、图像处理、医学基础操作等多方面人才对项目进行分析整合,力图在各方面的资助下能够完成该类设备的研发。在高清(1080P/4K)腹腔镜的技术上,加上红外识别的功能。高清是主体,红外是卖点。换句话说,没有血管识别需求的医生,也可以将本产品作为高清腹腔镜采购。Blood vessels are very sensitive parts when performing inspections, diagnoses, and operations inside various human cavities. It is very helpful for doctors to clarify the location and shape of blood vessels. Especially during surgery, if the position of the blood vessel is misjudged and the blood vessel is damaged, it will often lead to serious injury. With the increasing development of surgery, especially minimally invasive surgery, laparoscopic surgery has occupied the mainstream position with its incomparable advantages. For the "skeletalization" required for tumor resection and the "protection" of some surgical blood vessels, it is undoubtedly necessary for us to find a device that can fully display blood vessels. Based on this, we developed an infrared-based endoscope operating platform based on previous research. Its purpose is to perform spectroscopic imaging with common endoscopes, so as to identify blood vessels and be easy for doctors to use during surgery. Purpose. The present invention adopts a dual optical path system, and the visible light path part has not undergone much improvement. The infrared optical path system actively emits cold infrared light, and recognizes the position and shape of the blood vessel according to the difference in the absorption ratio of the infrared light between hemoglobin and other tissues, combined with a computer Assistive technology, the exposure of blood vessels for cleaning, assisting surgery and diagnosis during surgery. Through the dual optical path system, the success rate of surgery can be greatly improved, the risk of vascular injury in patients can be reduced, and at the same time, it can assist doctors in making a diagnosis, so that the corresponding operation can be decided according to the shape of the blood vessel. Since the initial idea of this project and the gradual formation of an idea at present, relevant communication and exchanges have been carried out with many enterprises. At present, the project integrates optics, equipment foundation, automation, image processing, medical basic operation and other talents to analyze and integrate the project, and strives to complete the research and development of this type of equipment with the support of various parties. In addition to the technology of high-definition (1080P/4K) laparoscopy, the function of infrared recognition is added. HD is the main body, and infrared is the selling point. In other words, doctors who do not need blood vessel recognition can also purchase this product as a high-definition laparoscope.

现有的国外内窥镜的研究集中在以下几个方向:1)利用窄带光谱NBI(narrow band imaging)技术,可以在诊断中,利用不同波长的光显影,看到病变组织,该技术主要用于诊断。2)荧光染色技术,可以看到癌变组织,并为手术提供依据。3)分辨率为1080P的高清腹腔镜,可以看到更加清晰的组织细节。4)3D可视化绘制技术,可以将体内组织的三维形状等信息展示出来。基于目前的研究情况,我们可以看到着重提升单光源系统的硬件水平是目前国内外研发重点。然而,华山医院的10265腹腔镜手术并发症报道中,45.16%为出血相关性并发症,此外如何能够让手术医生简化手术技术,探明血管的走形和分布,利于上手,是目前迫切需要解决的问题。Existing foreign endoscopic research focuses on the following directions: 1) Using NBI (narrow band imaging) technology, it is possible to use different wavelengths of light in diagnosis to see diseased tissue. for diagnosis. 2) Fluorescent staining technology can see cancerous tissue and provide a basis for surgery. 3) The high-definition laparoscope with a resolution of 1080P can see clearer tissue details. 4) 3D visualization rendering technology, which can display information such as the three-dimensional shape of tissues in the body. Based on the current research situation, we can see that improving the hardware level of the single light source system is the current research and development focus at home and abroad. However, among the 10,265 laparoscopic surgery complications reported by Huashan Hospital, 45.16% were bleeding-related complications. In addition, how to enable surgeons to simplify surgical techniques, ascertain the shape and distribution of blood vessels, and help them get started is an urgent need to solve The problem.

因此,迫切需要设计一种具有血管识别术中定位双光路腹腔镜。Therefore, there is an urgent need to design a double-light path laparoscope with intraoperative positioning for vessel identification.
