Problems solved by technology

Although this method avoids the problem of out-of-focus in the simultaneous imaging of visible light and near-infrared fluorescence, and improves the resolution of the image, the cost of the four image sensors is high, and the color and fluorescence images need to be synthesized before outputting, which requires the calculation of the software. High, and the structure is huge and complex

Abstract

The invention discloses a turning light-splitting unit, and an endoscope optical imaging system and imaging method. The turning light-splitting unit is used for enabling the positions of imaging focal planes of light with different wavelengths to be consistent. The imaging system comprises a light signal transmitting unit, a light signal collection unit, and a camera unit. The light signal transmitting unit transmits visible light and near infrared exciting light to a to-be-detected tissue. The light signal collection unit collects the visible light reflected by the to-be-detected tissue and the near infrared fluorescence emitted by excitation. The camera unit receives two types of light collected by the light signal collection unit, and enables the positions of imaging focal planes of two types of light to be consistent. The imaging method comprises the steps: transmitting visible light and near infrared exciting light to the to-be-detected tissue; collecting the visible light reflected by the to-be-detected tissue and the near infrared fluorescence emitted by excitation; splitting two types of light, converging the two types of light, and enabling the positions of imaging focal planes of two types of light to be consistent. The system is simple in structure, is small in size, and is low in manufacture cost. The system can output color and fluorescence images at the same time, and is low in requirements for the operation capability of software.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to the field of minimally invasive technology, in particular to a turning beam splitting unit, an endoscope optical imaging system, and an imaging method. Background technique [0002] In recent years, as the near-infrared fluorescent contrast agent ICG (indocyanine green) is used in the research of ocular blood vessels, especially choroidal blood vessels, the diagnosis of malignant tumors, the determination of tumor margins, and the detection of tumor sentinel lymph nodes, etc., in minimally invasive diagnosis and The field of surgery has developed rapidly, and at the same time, new requirements have been put forward for the supporting medical endoscopes. Existing medical endoscopes generally use the visible light spectrum (400nm-700nm), in this spectral range, the endoscope system can meet the requirements of clear imaging. However, near-infrared fluorescence contrast imaging uses near-infrared fluorescence spectrum (820nm-850n...
