Abstract

The invention relates to a reflection type spectral pupil confocal-photoacoustic microimaging device and method. The structures and the functions of a reflection type spectral pupil confocal microimaging system and a photoacoustic imaging system are organically combined on the basis of a spectral pupil confocal microimaging system with a large working distance, high axial resolution and stray light interference resistance; the reflection type spectral pupil confocal microimaging system is used for detecting spatial structure information of a biological sample, and the photoacoustic microimaging system is used for detecting functional information of the biological sample, so that simultaneous detection of the spatial structure information and the functional information of the biological sample can be realized, and in-situ and noninvasive real-time imaging of a biological living body is expected to be realized. By adoption of a spectral pupil confocal imaging technology, the axial resolution and the working distance of the spectral pupil differential confocal-photoacoustic microimaging device can be effectively compatible, so that interference of stray light on a focal surface on the a high-stray sample can be suppressed; the signal-to-noise ratio of the system is high; therefore, integrated and handheld design of the spectral pupil confocal-photoacoustic microimaging device can be facilitated.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to a reflective split-pupil confocal-photoacoustic microscopic imaging device and method, and belongs to the technical fields of confocal microscopic imaging technology and photoacoustic microscopic imaging technology. [0002] technical background [0003] Due to its unique tomographic imaging capability and high spatial resolution capability in the optical field, confocal microscopy imaging technology has been widely used as an important technical means in biomedical research, physical chemistry research, material testing, micro-nano testing and other fields. However, the existing confocal microscopic imaging technology mainly uses the scattered light or fluorescence of the object for imaging, which only obtains the structural image of the observed object, and cannot obtain the functional image of cells or biological macromolecules. The depth is only on the order of submillimeters. [0004] Photoacoustic imaging is based on the ...
