Abstract

The invention discloses an OCT (optical coherence tomography)-based high-sensitivity measurement system and method with a large dynamic range of flow speed. According to the measurement system and method disclosed by the invention, a two-dimensional scanning strategy combining fast scanning driven by saw-tooth waves and slow-speed scanning driven by step waves is adopted, and a high-speed CMOS (complementary metal oxide semiconductor) camera is utilized for acquiring an interference spectrum. A traditional phase resolution algorithm is adopted in the fast scanning direction for extracting high-flow-speed information, and a high-order correlation phase resolution algorithm is adopted in the slow-speed scanning direction for extracting slow-flow-speed information and a phase variance value corresponding to the large dynamic rate of the flow speed. A flow speed image is synthesized from the high-flow-speed information and the slow-flow-speed information. After space filtering and binarization are performed on a phase variance image, a mask image is obtained, and the flow speed image is processed by the mask image to get the final flow speed image. According to the measurement system and method disclosed by the invention, the dynamic range of measurement flow speed can be expanded, and the noise-limited speed detection sensitivity is further broken through.

Description

technical field [0001] The present invention relates to optical coherence tomography (OCT) technology and spectral domain optical coherence tomography (SD-OCT) technology, in particular to an OCT-based high-sensitivity measurement system and method for large dynamic range flow velocity. technical background [0002] Optical coherence tomography (OCT) imaging technology is a new type of optical imaging technology that can perform non-invasive, non-contact, high-resolution in vivo imaging of tissue structure and physiological functions. The field of non-destructive testing has broad application prospects. [0003] In order to obtain the functional information of the tissue, various functional OCTs have been developed one after another. Among them, Doppler OCT can realize the imaging of blood flow velocity, which is of great significance in medical research and clinical application. Most current flow velocity measurements are based on the traditional phase-resolved method, wh...
