Abstract

The invention provides a microwave hyperthermia coagulation area detecting method based on an ultrasonic decorrelation imaging technology. Ultrasonic echo signals at different moments of microwave hyperthermia are continuously collected. Instantaneous decorrelation imaging (decorrelation imaging of ultrasonic signals of every two adjacent frames) and maximum cumulative decorrelation imaging (the maximum value of each pixel in all instantaneous decorrelation images) are carried out respectively. A threshold is set. A coagulation area is depicted in a cumulative decorrelation image. A polynomialfitting technology is combined to realize quantitative detection of the microwave hyperthermia coagulation area. According to the invention, all ultrasonic signals are collected during a hyperthermiaprocess; the influence of signal mutation caused by cavitation can be reduced; and the detection accuracy of the coagulation area is improved.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention belongs to the field of signal processing, in particular to a microwave hyperthermia monitoring method based on ultrasonic echo decorrelation imaging technology. Background technique [0002] Liver cancer is one of the common malignant tumors, and surgical resection is currently considered the first choice for the treatment of liver cancer. However, due to factors such as tumor location, size, and surrounding blood vessels, only a small number of patients are suitable for surgery. In recent years, thermal ablation has emerged as an effective novel therapy for liver tumors. Microwave hyperthermia has attracted widespread attention due to its characteristics of not being affected by current conduction, less affected by carbonization and blood perfusion, rapid temperature rise, and large ablation range. In order to ensure the maximum range of killing tumor cells and protecting normal tissue cells during hyperthermia, the quantitative real-...
