Monitoring alarm system and method for microscopic optical slice tomographic imaging system

Abstract

The present invention discloses a monitoring alarm system and a method for a microscopic optical slice tomographic imaging system. The system comprises a monitoring module, and an alarm module. The monitoring module is used for monitoring the imaging condition of the microscopic optical slice tomographic imaging system, and then judging whether an abnormal condition occurs or not according to the acquired imaging condition information of the microscopic optical slice tomographic imaging system. If an abnormal condition occurs, the monitoring module sends out an alarm triggering signal. The alarm module is used for receiving the alarm triggering signal and then sending out an alarm. According to the technical scheme of the invention, the parameters of the microscopic optical slice tomographic imaging system during the imaging process, such as the brightness of a light source, the current of a three-dimensional translational platform and the like, can be acquired in real time. Meanwhile, the system sends out the alarm upon detecting the occurrence of the following abnormal conditions: the light source cannot provide a pre-set light source brightness; the air floating shaft of the three-dimensional translational platform cannot supply sufficient air during the imaging process, an acquisition program cannot control the normal imaging of a camera; and so on. Therefore, the time waste and the labor cost during the imaging process are effectively reduced. Meanwhile, the stability of the imaging process is improved, and the high-resolution characteristics of the imaging effect can be maintained.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to a monitoring and alarming system for an imaging system, in particular to a monitoring and alarming system and method suitable for a micro-optical section tomography system. Background technique [0002] Micro-optical section tomography is a whole-brain optical imaging technology that combines optical imaging and mechanical ablation. It can perform high-resolution three-dimensional imaging of embedded intact mouse brains with micron voxel resolution. The micro-optical section tomography system consists of a light source, an optical path, a detector, a three-dimensional translation stage, and a cutter. The imaging process lasts for several days, during which manual duty is required to regularly check the operation of the system to avoid data loss due to abnormal system operation. This method not only has high labor costs, but also has some unavoidable problems, such as abnormal operating conditions occurring during the inspectio...

Problems solved by technology

This method not only has high labor costs, but also has some unavoidable problems, such as abnormal operating conditions occurring during the inspection interval, but the abnormality is not discovered in time; in addition, misoperations are prone to occur during night shifts, etc.
