Problems solved by technology

[0004] However, unlike common biological macromolecules with typical absorption peaks, biological tissues have no obvious characteristic absorption peaks in the terahertz band. Imaging contrast needs to be further significantly improved, especially when the signal-to-noise ratio of the imaging system is low
Moreover, the existing methods for terahertz imaging of biological tissues often only use information at a certain time point or frequency point, and the utilization rate of the entire terahertz signal and the corresponding imaging discrimination need to be further improved

Abstract

The invention discloses a biological tissue terahertz imaging method, system and equipment based on multiscale entropy. According to the method, the information of whole terahertz time-domain spectroscopy signals is utilized, and the entropy value of each point on the detected biological tissue sample on different time scales is obtained; the entropy value on a certain scale is selected, or the entropy values on multiple scales are added together, so that a terahertz image of the detected biological tissue sample is reconstructed. By means of the method, the limitations that a traditional biological tissue terahertz imaging method only uses the spectroscopy information of a certain time or frequency point are overcome, and imaging contrast among different samples is improved.
