Problems solved by technology

The unit detector needs to use a mechanical rotation to collect signals to reconstruct a complete frame of image, so it takes a lot of time. If it is used to detect mammary glands, the inspected mammary gland moves relative to the detector, which will cause image blur and affect the resolution. , so it is urgent to find an ultrasonic detector that can quickly detect

Abstract

The invention discloses an ultrashort pulse microwave thermoacoustic mammography detecting device. The device comprises a microwave generating system, a data acquiring system, a coupling system, an image reconstruction system and a microwave leakage protective system; the microwave generating system, the coupling system, the data acquiring system and the image reconstruction system are connected in sequence; and the microwave generating system and the coupling system are arranged in the microwave leakage protective system. According to the ultrashort pulse microwave thermoacoustic mammography detecting device, the thermoacoustic effect is utilized, and the excitation is performed by the ultrashort pulse microwave, therefore, the excitation efficiency is greatly improved, and the required microwave power density is greatly reduced; a multielement annular array ultrasonic detector and the data acquiring system are utilized, thus the mammary microwave absorption difference can be quickly detected over short time, and the temporal resolution is high; when in detecting, only a part to be detected is irradiated, and no microwave leaks to the outer space, and therefore, no interference is brought to the outside environment or outside instruments. The ultrashort pulse microwave thermoacoustic mammography detecting device is high in applicability, simple and convenient to operate, long in continuous running time, low in cost, and capable of effectively prompting the industrialization and clinical application of the thermoacoustic technology.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention belongs to the technical field of thermoacoustic imaging, in particular to an ultrashort pulse microwave thermoacoustic breast imaging detection device. Background technique [0002] Microwave thermoacoustic imaging is a new type of non-destructive testing technology, which has attracted more and more attention because of its advantages of high contrast and high resolution, safety and non-destructive, and high imaging depth. When a substance is irradiated with pulsed microwaves, the substance absorbs microwave energy to cause an instantaneous temperature rise. If the pulse width of the microwave is relatively narrow, the absorbed energy cannot undergo thermal diffusion within the duration of the microwave pulse. At this time, it can be regarded as adiabatic expansion. , heat energy is converted into mechanical energy and radiated in the form of ultrasonic waves, which is the thermoacoustic effect. [0003] The thermoacoustic signal mainl...
