Embodiment Construction

[0033] Such as figure 1 As shown, the helical scanning co-path interference type endoscopic frequency-sweeping OCT real-time imaging system proposed by the present invention comprises: a frequency-sweeping light source 1, a first single-mode optical fiber 2, an optical circulator 3, a second single-mode optical fiber 4, and an optical coupler 5. The third single-mode optical fiber 6, the air bag 7, the endoscopic probe 8, the fourth single-mode optical fiber 9, the fifth single-mode optical fiber 10, the balance detector 11, the rotating motor 21, the connecting wire 22 and the computer 26. The frequency-sweeping light source 1 is a near-infrared broadband light source with fast wavelength scanning. The light emitted by it passes through the first single-mode optical fiber 2 to the input port a of the optical circulator 3, and then exits from the middle port b of the optical circulator 3 and passes through The second single-mode fiber 4 reaches an optical coupler 5 . The opti...

Abstract

The invention relates to a helical scanning common path interference type endoscopic frequency-swept optical coherence tomography (OCT) real-time imaging method and a helical scanning common path interference type endoscopic frequency-swept OCT real-time imaging system. A light splitter and a reference lens are arranged in a probe, so that the whole system is formed into a common path interference structure, a micromotor mounted in the probe is used for carrying out the smooth helical scanning of a focused illuminating light beam, and the frequency-swept OCT technology which does not require mechanical scanning movement along the depth direction of a sample is adopted to achieve the purpose of fast imaging; and finally, a series of digital signal processing is carried out on the acquired interference signals to obtain the three-dimensional image of the detected sample. The invention is characterized in that: the system is not sensitive to various interferences, the probe is plug-and-play, three-dimensional imaging is real-time, image distortion is little, and the omission of pathological changes is reduced.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to medical endoscopic imaging technology and optical coherence tomography imaging technology, in particular to an endoscopic frequency-sweeping optical coherence tomography real-time imaging method and system using a spiral scanning mode and a common path interference structure. Background technique [0002] Human lesions mostly start from the inside of tissues and organs. Therefore, many imaging techniques with tomographic capabilities, such as computed tomography, nuclear magnetic resonance, X-ray, and ultrasound, are playing a huge role in clinical diagnosis. However, these techniques can only provide a resolution of 0.1 to 1 mm, which is far from the level of resolution required to detect early tissue abnormalities. Optical coherence tomography (OCT) technology can non-invasively image the internal structure and certain physiological functions of tissues and organs, and has the high resolution level (up to micron level) requi...
