Detailed Description
The present invention is described in detail by way of specific embodiments in order to better understand the technical direction of the present invention for those skilled in the art. It should be understood, however, that the detailed description is provided for a better understanding of the invention only and that they should not be taken as limiting the invention. In describing the present invention, it is to be understood that the terminology used is for the purpose of description only and is not intended to be indicative or implied of relative importance.
The present embodiment provides a human brain light stimulation modulation device, as shown in fig. 1, including: the device comprises an optical parameter regulating module, a light generating module, a light irradiation probe and a probe position adjusting module which are connected in sequence; the optical parameter regulation and control module is connected with the light generation module and is used for setting the light intensity, the wavelength and the irradiation time of the light signal generated by the light generation module; the light generation module generates light signals with preset light intensity and frequency, and transmits the light signals to the light irradiation probe, and the preset light intensity and frequency are determined by different irradiation modes; the irradiation area of the light irradiation probe is determined by different irradiation modes and is changed along with the change of the irradiation modes, and the light irradiation probe is used for carrying out fixed-point irradiation on the area corresponding to the specific disease of the brain; the probe position adjusting module is connected with the light irradiation probe and used for adjusting and locking the irradiation position of the light irradiation probe. In the embodiment, the light signals are input to the specific part of the human brain, so that ATP in the human brain is increased, the activity of the human brain is enhanced, the cognitive ability of the human brain is improved, a certain adjuvant therapy effect on diseases such as depression, autism, Alzheimer's disease, Parkinson's disease, epilepsy and the like is achieved, and meanwhile, the improvement of the cognitive ability of the brain is facilitated.
The reason why the photostimulation device in this embodiment can relieve the brain diseases and improve the cognitive ability is because the Cytochrome C Oxidase (CCO) in the human brain absorbs photons. Cytochrome c oxidase is located at the end of the cytochrome system in cellular respiration, and this enzyme transfers the electrons of the respiratory substrate directly to molecular oxygen via the cytochrome system. The light emitted from the light emitting module passes through a series of layers such as the scalp, periosteum, skull, meninges and dura mater, and finally reaches the surface of the human cerebral cortex, and is absorbed by the CCO. CCO plays a key role in brain metabolism, and the higher its activity, the higher the oxygen consumption and metabolic capacity of mitochondria. ATP, which is a high-energy compound in organisms, is mainly produced by mitochondria, is usually present inside cells, and serves as an energy currency molecule to support various metabolic activities of cells. Mitochondria are the most prominent source of intracellular ATP, determining ATP levels. Therefore, the increase of oxygen consumption and metabolism of mitochondria can lead to increase of ATP in cells, thereby promoting the growth and development of human brain cells, and the increase of ATP at a certain level can stimulate free Ca in cells2+Increase in molecular content of Nitric Oxide (NO), Reactive Oxygen Species (ROS), etc. Wherein NO binds to CCO to inhibit CCO activity and reduce ATP production. The light signal absorbed by the CCO can increase ATP yield by separating NO, thereby preventing NO from binding to CCO. Therefore, the light stimulation can relax blood vessels of the brain, increase blood circulation, promote cerebral neuroprotection and enhance cerebral cognitive function.
In order to facilitate the fixation of the light irradiation probe, the cerebral light stimulation control device in this embodiment further includes a fixing module, and the fixing module is used for fixing and bearing the light irradiation probe and the probe position adjusting module. The fixing module can only fix one light irradiation probe and one probe position adjusting module, and can also bear a plurality of light irradiation probes and each probe position adjusting module. Wherein the light irradiation probe may be movable or fixed. And the number of the light irradiation probes can correspond to the number of the probe position adjusting modules, or only one probe adjusting module can be arranged, and the probe adjusting module can move the light irradiation probes to corresponding positions. Specifically, a light irradiation probe can be placed at each position needing irradiation, the light irradiation probe at the position needing irradiation is controlled to be turned on through the probe position adjusting module, and the light irradiation probe at the position needing no irradiation is turned off. Another implementation manner is to set the position adjustment module as a transmission part, where the transmission part may be any one commonly used component that can implement a transmission function, such as a manipulator, and one end of the transmission part is fixed with the light irradiation probe to transmit the light irradiation probe to a designated position. The fixed module sets up corresponding opening in the position that needs shine, and the transmission portion will be transmitted to the light irradiation probe of assigned position and put into the opening can. The fixing module can also adjust the positions of the light irradiation probe and the skin of the head of the user, the adjusting mode can be automatic or manual, the automatic fixing module comprises a temperature sensor arranged on the light irradiation probe, when the temperature of the skin of the head of the user is detected to be too high, the distance between the light irradiation probe and the skin of the head is increased, and the head skin of the user is prevented from being burnt. In addition, the stent may also include a plurality of comb-like racks for plucking the user's hair to better direct the light signal to the user's brain.
In this embodiment, the light generating module and the light irradiation probe may be directly connected to each other, or may be connected to each other through a light transmission module disposed therebetween, where the light transmission module may be an optical fiber or the like, and the light transmission module is configured to transmit the optical signal generated by the light generating module to the light irradiation probe. By adopting the former setting method, the loss of optical signals emitted by the light generation module is less, different light irradiation probes can irradiate light with different intensities and wavelengths, the functions are comprehensive, the selectivity is high, but the light generation module needs to be in one-to-one correspondence with the light irradiation probes, and when the number of the light irradiation probes is large, the device is complex. The latter arrangement introduces the optical transmission module, and one optical generation module can correspond to a plurality of light irradiation probes, so that the device structure is greatly simplified, but the wavelength and intensity of light generated by the same optical generation module are fixed, the adjustable variable is less, and the longer optical path can also increase the loss of light. The specific selection should be determined according to the specific application scenario and requirements.
The light generating module essentially comprises a laser emitter, for example a diode laser emitter, preferably a laser emitter with a relatively large wavelength range. The light signal for brain stimulation is mainly concentrated in the red and infrared light range, so the laser emitter is also preferably a laser emitter emitting in this range of laser wavelengths.

As shown in fig. 2 and 3, for patients with different diseases, different positions of the patient's head need to be irradiated.

The wavelength, power density and area of light that illuminates the patient's head are also different for patients with different diseases. For stroke patients, the light source wavelength was set to 810nm and the power was set to 1400 mW; for the traumatic brain injury patient, the light source wavelength is set to 870nm, and the power is set to 550 mW; for patients with Alzheimer's disease, the light source wavelength was set to 810nm and the power was set to 550 mW; for depression patients, the light source wavelength was set at 810nm and the power density was set at 700mW/cm2(ii) a For patients in need of mood improvement, the light source wavelength is set to 1064nm, and the power density is set to 250mW/cm2(ii) a For patients in need of preventing neuropsychological disorder, the light source wavelength is set to 1064nm, and the power density is set to 250mW/cm2.

Since patients with depression, mood improvement, and neuropsychological disorder prevention are mainly used to increase psychological factors such as mood or simply to prevent brain diseases, the requirements for irradiation range are not particularly strict, and those skilled in the art can adjust the irradiation area according to the specific conditions of the patients. But the irradiation area should not exceed the area of the head skin corresponding to the frontal lobe area.
