Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] The present invention relates to the field of biomedical engineering, and in particular, to a method and device for reconstructing region division. Background Art
[0002] According to Faraday's law of electromagnetic induction, when a conductor passes through a constant magnetic field at a certain speed, an induced potential difference perpendicular to the magnetic field direction will be generated at both ends of the conductor. The magnitude of the induced potential difference has a linear relationship with the product of the magnetic field strength and the conductor speed. This is the basic principle for measuring fluid velocity based on electromagnetic induction.
[0003] The blood flow measurement technology based on electromagnetic induction can be applied to the early diagnosis and prevention of human artery stenosis. However, the existing blood flow measurement technology based on electromagnetic induction is limited by the contradiction between the small amount of induced potential difference data and the increased cost caused by adding measurement electrodes. Currently, it can only measure the blood flow or flow velocity in a local area. Although it can judge the degree of artery stenosis, it cannot determine the specific stenosis location.
[0004] The patent with the application number 201810927376.5 discloses a method and device for measuring human blood flow velocity. By setting multiple electrodes and multiple measurement regions, it breaks the limitation of the flow pattern of traditional multi - electrode electromagnetic flowmeters, converts the average velocity of the entire measurement cross - section focused on by traditional flowmeters into the average axial velocity within each micro - element, and solves the problem of blood flow velocity detection in medical treatment. However, there are problems such as the dependence of electromagnetic induction measurement accuracy and the reconstructed region on the number of electrodes, and the strong subjectivity of the reconstructed region division method. For example: the above - mentioned method and device can only obtain 15 effective potential difference data, and can accurately reconstruct at most 15 reconstructed regions. And 15 reconstructed regions are artificially selected, including regions with blood vessels and regions without blood vessels. The artificial selection has strong subjectivity, and the specific position of blood vessels is unknown during the actual measurement process, making it difficult to be applied in practice.

[0053] The present invention will be described below based on embodiments. However, it should be noted that the present invention is not limited to these embodiments. In the following detailed description of the present invention, some specific details are described in detail. However, for the parts not described in detail, those skilled in the art can also fully understand the present invention.
[0054] In addition, those of ordinary skill in the art should understand that the provided drawings are only for illustrating the purpose, features, and advantages of the present invention, and the drawings are not actually drawn to scale.
[0055] At the same time, unless the context clearly requires otherwise, words such as "including" and "comprising" in the entire specification and claims should be interpreted as having an inclusive meaning rather than an exclusive or exhaustive meaning; that is, it is the meaning of "including but not limited to".
[0056] Figure 1 is a flowchart of a method for reconstructing region division according to an embodiment of the present invention. As Figure 1 shown, a method for reconstructing region division includes: Step 101: Select a region to be reconstructed, and detect the shape of the region to be reconstructed; Step 102: Find the geometric center of the region to be reconstructed; Step 103: Establish a two-dimensional polar coordinate system with the geometric center as the pole; Step 104: In the two-dimensional polar coordinate system, with the geometric center as the pole, reduce the shape by several scales to obtain several scale shapes; Step 105: Starting from the pole, with the ray where the polar axis is located as the side, rotate in the two-dimensional polar coordinate system according to a set angle to obtain several polar radii; Step 106: The several polar radii divide the several scale shapes into several regions respectively, and the several regions are the reconstructed regions; wherein, the region to be reconstructed is a region where the blood flow velocity distribution needs to be measured.
[0057] The specific method for Step 101 to select a region to be reconstructed and detect the shape of the region to be reconstructed is: For example, select the upper limb (arm) of the human body as the region to be reconstructed, that is, the region where the blood flow velocity distribution needs to be measured is the upper limb of the human body, and use the edge detection method to detect the shape of the upper limb of the human body, detect and draw the edge lines of the cross-section to be reconstructed of the upper limb of the human body to obtain the region to be reconstructed.
[0058] The specific method for Step 102 to find the geometric center of the region to be reconstructed is: Equivalent the region to be reconstructed to a regular figure. For example, if the upper limb (arm) of the human body is selected as the region to be reconstructed, it can be equivalent to a circle or an ellipse. If the region to be reconstructed is equivalent to a circle, the geometric center of the region to be reconstructed is at the center of the circle; if the region to be reconstructed is equivalent to an ellipse, the geometric center of the region to be reconstructed is at the center of the line connecting the two foci of the ellipse.
[0059] Step 103: Establish a two-dimensional polar coordinate system with the geometric center as the pole. The specific method is as follows: Take the geometric center of the region to be reconstructed as the pole O, draw a ray from the pole to the outside of the region to be reconstructed as the polar axis Ox, and then select a unit length and the positive direction of the angle (counterclockwise or clockwise). For any point P in the plane, use r to represent the length of the line segment OP, and θ to represent the angle from Ox to OP. r is called the polar radius of point P, and θ is called the polar angle of point P. The ordered pair (r, θ) is called the polar coordinates of point M. The coordinate system established in this way is called a polar coordinate system. Since the method of establishing a two-dimensional polar coordinate system is relatively simple, no illustration is given here. For specific reference, please refer to Figure 3 Understanding.
[0060] Step 104: In the two-dimensional polar coordinate system, with the geometric center as the pole, scale down the shape by several scales. The specific method is as follows: With the pole at the geometric center as the center, select several points on the edge of the shape of the region to be reconstructed, calculate the several distances from these several points to the center, and scale down the shape of the region to be reconstructed according to a certain proportional coefficient (i.e., several scales) of these several distances to obtain several scaled shapes, where the proportional coefficient is less than 1.
[0061] Step 105: Rotate in the two-dimensional polar coordinate system with the pole as the starting point and the ray where the polar axis is located as the side according to a set angle to obtain several polar radii. The specific method is as follows: With the pole as the starting point and the ray where the polar axis is located as the side, rotate in the two-dimensional polar coordinate system according to a set angle, which can be rotated counterclockwise or clockwise. Taking clockwise rotation as an example: When starting from the pole and rotating in the two-dimensional polar coordinate system with the ray where the polar axis is located as the side according to a set angle, after intersecting with the edge of the region to be reconstructed, the first polar radius is obtained. Then, starting from the pole and rotating in the two-dimensional polar coordinate system with the ray where the first polar radius is located as the side according to a set angle, the second polar radius is obtained, and so on, until the Nth polar radius is obtained. That is to say, the number of polar radii is 360° / set angle. If the set angle is 20°, then the number of polar radii is 18.
[0062] Step 106: The several polar radii divide the several scaled shapes into several regions, and these several regions are the reconstructed regions; among them, the method for the region to be reconstructed to be the region where the blood flow velocity distribution needs to be measured is as follows: For example, if the number of polar radii is 3 and the number of scaled shapes is 1, then 3*(1 + 1) = 6 reconstructed regions are obtained.
[0063] Select a number of points on the shape edge of the to-be-reconstructed region, calculate the distances from the number of points to the center, and reduce the shape of the to-be-reconstructed region by a certain proportional coefficient (i.e., a number of scales) of the number of distances to obtain a number of scaled shapes, where the proportional coefficient is less than 1.
[0064] In step 101, the cross-section of the to-be-reconstructed region is equivalent to a circle, and the shape of the to-be-reconstructed region is circular; that is, after selecting the to-be-reconstructed region, the cross-section of the to-be-reconstructed region is equivalent to a circle, and at this time, the detected shape of the to-be-reconstructed region is circular; or the cross-section of the to-be-reconstructed region is equivalent to a circle, and the shape of the to-be-reconstructed region is circular; in the two-dimensional polar coordinate system, with the geometric center as the pole, the specific method for reducing the shape by a number of scales to obtain a number of scaled shapes is: determine the number h of the number of scaled shapes, and successively draw concentric circles outward with the pole as the center and k*R / h as the radius to obtain the number of scaled shapes; where the number of scaled shapes is a circular shape; R is the radius of the to-be-reconstructed region, and the coefficient k = 1, 2... h.
[0065] At the same time, before selecting the to-be-reconstructed region, set the number M of the reconstructed region divisions. According to the number M of the reconstructed region divisions, determine the number h of the number of scaled shapes and the set angle 2π / m; where m = M / (h + 1).

As Figure 2As shown in the figure, a device for reconstructing regional division includes: a detection unit 201, a calculation unit 202, a polar coordinate system establishment unit 203, a scale and shape unit 204, a polar radius unit 205, and a division unit 206; the detection unit 201 is respectively connected to the calculation unit 202 and the scale and shape unit 204, the calculation unit 202 is connected to the polar coordinate system establishment unit 203, the polar coordinate system establishment unit 203 is further connected to the scale and shape unit 204 and the polar radius unit 205, and the scale and shape unit 204 and the polar radius unit 205 are also connected to the division unit 206; the detection unit 201 is used to select a region to be reconstructed and detect the shape of the region to be reconstructed; the calculation unit 202 is used to find the geometric center of the region to be reconstructed; the polar coordinate system establishment unit 203 is used to establish a two-dimensional polar coordinate system with the geometric center as the pole; the scale and shape unit 204 is used to reduce the shape by several scales with the geometric center as the pole in the two-dimensional polar coordinate system to obtain several scale shapes; the polar radius unit 205 is used to rotate in the two-dimensional polar coordinate system with the pole as the starting point and the ray where the polar axis is located as the side according to a set angle to obtain several polar radii; the division unit 206 is used to divide the several scale shapes into several regions by the several polar radii, and the several regions are reconstruction regions; wherein, the region to be reconstructed is a region where the blood flow velocity distribution needs to be measured. The specific implementation method can refer to Figure 1 the detailed description in
[0067] In Figure 2 it, the detection unit 201 includes: an equivalent unit; the equivalent unit is used to equivalently convert the cross-section of the region to be reconstructed into a circle, and the shape of the region to be reconstructed is circular; or the equivalent unit is used to equivalently convert the cross-section of the region to be reconstructed into a circle, and the scale and shape unit 204 performs the following operations: determine the number h of the several scale shapes, and successively draw concentric circles outward with the pole as the center and k*R / h as the radius to obtain the several scale shapes; wherein, the several scale shapes are circular shapes; R is the radius of the region to be reconstructed, and the coefficient k = 1, 2... h. The specific implementation method can refer to Figure 1 the detailed description in
[0068] In Figure 2 it, a device for reconstructing regional division further includes: a determination unit; the determination unit is connected to the calculation unit 202, and before selecting the region to be reconstructed, the determination unit is used to set or determine the number M of reconstructed regional divisions, and according to the number M of reconstructed regional divisions, determine the number h of the several scale shapes and the set angle 2π / m; wherein, m = M / (h + 1). The specific implementation method can refer to Figure 1 the detailed description in
[0069] Figure 3 It is a schematic diagram of the reconstruction area division when the cross-section of the shape of the area to be reconstructed in the present invention is equivalent to a circle. As Figure 3 shown, if the cross-section of the upper limb of the human body is divided into M reconstruction areas, taking Figure 3 the division method as an example, the area to be reconstructed is divided into 64 reconstruction areas, where the number h of the shapes of several scales is 3 and the set angle is 2π / 16.
[0070] In Figure 3 , before calculating the blood flow velocity value of each reconstruction area, the area to be reconstructed is divided to obtain several areas, and the several areas are reconstruction areas, so as to calculate the contribution weight of the blood flow velocity in each reconstruction area to the n*(n - 1) induced potential differences. For example, if the number M of the reconstruction areas is 64, the labeling method of each reconstruction area is as follows: the area where the polar axis, the first polar radius intersect with the smallest scale shape is the first reconstruction area 1, the area where the polar axis, the first polar radius intersect with the adjacent next scale shape is the second reconstruction area 2, and they are the third reconstruction area 3 and the fourth reconstruction area 4 in turn from the inside to the outside. Then, in the counterclockwise order, the area where the first polar radius, the second polar radius intersect with the smallest scale shape is the fifth reconstruction area 5, and they are the sixth reconstruction area 6, the seventh reconstruction area 7 and the eighth reconstruction area 8 in turn from the inside to the outside according to the same method as above. Then, in the counterclockwise order according to the above method, they are labeled 9, 10....64 (not shown in the figure) as the ninth reconstruction area and the tenth reconstruction area.... the sixty-fourth reconstruction area. Among the 64 reconstruction areas, if the number n of the electrodes is 16, the contribution weight of the blood flow velocity in each reconstruction area to the 16*(16 - 1) induced potential differences.
[0071] The present invention also proposes another device for reconstructing area division, including: a memory, a processor, and a computer program stored on the memory and executable on the processor. The computer program is the method as described above. When the processor executes the program, the following steps are implemented: select the area to be reconstructed, and detect the shape of the area to be reconstructed; find the geometric center of the area to be reconstructed; establish a two-dimensional polar coordinate system with the geometric center as the pole; in the two-dimensional polar coordinate system, with the geometric center as the pole, reduce the shape by several scales to obtain several scale shapes; with the pole as the starting point and the ray where the polar axis is located as the side, rotate in the two-dimensional polar coordinate system according to the set angle to obtain several polar radii; the several polar radii divide the several scale shapes into several areas respectively, and the several areas are reconstruction areas; wherein, the area to be reconstructed is the area where the blood flow velocity distribution needs to be measured. For the specific implementation method, reference can be made to Figure 1 the detailed description in
[0072] Figure 4It is a flowchart of a method for measuring blood flow velocity distribution according to an embodiment of the present invention. As Figure 4 shown, a method for measuring blood flow velocity distribution includes: Step 401, setting a constant and uniform magnetic field at the cross-section of the region to be reconstructed; Step 402, arranging n electrodes outside the cross-section; Step 403, taking one of the electrodes as a reference electrode and the remaining n - 1 electrodes as measurement electrodes to obtain n - 1 induced potential differences; Step 404, selecting the adjacent electrode of the reference electrode as the new reference electrode in a clockwise or counterclockwise direction, and the remaining n - 1 electrodes as measurement electrodes to obtain n - 1 induced potential differences; Step 405, until all electrodes are traversed as new reference electrodes, finally obtaining n*(n - 1) induced potential differences; Step 406, taking the n*(n - 1) induced potential differences as input data, and calculating the blood flow velocity value of each reconstructed region through a reconstruction equation, thereby obtaining the blood flow velocity distribution of the region to be reconstructed; wherein, the region to be reconstructed is the region to be measured, and n > 2.
[0073] In Figure 4 , taking the human upper limb (arm) as an example of the region to be reconstructed for illustration: Step 401, setting a constant and uniform magnetic field at the cross-section of the region to be reconstructed, that is, using an excitation device to set a constant and uniform magnetic field at the cross-section of the human upper limb. Step 402, arranging n electrodes outside the cross-section, and the outside of the cross-section is the outside of the skin of the region to be reconstructed. For example, when the region to be reconstructed is the human upper limb, n electrodes are arranged outside the skin of the human upper limb, that is, on the surface layer of the upper limb skin; Step 403, taking one of the electrodes as a reference electrode and the remaining n - 1 electrodes as measurement electrodes to obtain n - 1 induced potential differences, that is, taking one of the electrodes as a reference electrode and the remaining electrodes as measurement electrodes to obtain n - 1 effective induced potential differences; Step 404, selecting the adjacent electrode of the reference electrode as the new reference electrode in a clockwise or counterclockwise direction, and the remaining n - 1 electrodes as measurement electrodes to obtain n - 1 induced potential differences. For example, in the counterclockwise order, selecting the next electrode as the reference electrode and all the remaining electrodes as measurement electrodes to obtain n - 1 effective induced potential differences again; Step 405, until all electrodes are traversed as new reference electrodes, finally obtaining n*(n - 1) induced potential differences. Repeating Step 404 until all electrodes are traversed as reference electrodes, finally obtaining n*(n - 1) effective induced potential differences, and all the effective induced potential differences N = n*(n - 1); Step 40, taking the n*(n - 1) induced potential differences as input data, and calculating the blood flow velocity value of each reconstructed region through a reconstruction equation, thereby obtaining the blood flow velocity distribution of the region to be reconstructed, that is, calculating the blood flow velocity values of each reconstructed region through a reconstruction equation, and thereby obtaining the blood flow velocity distribution of the entire upper limb cross-section. Wherein, the region to be reconstructed is the region to be measured, and n > 2.
[0074] InFigure 4 In this method, before setting a constant and uniform magnetic field at the cross-section of the region to be reconstructed, the region to be reconstructed is divided into several regions, and these several regions are the reconstruction regions. The cross-section of the upper limb described in step 101 is divided into M reconstruction regions, where M ≤ N; among them, all the effective induced potential differences N = n*(n - 1).

The specific implementation method can refer to Figure 1 or Figure 2 the detailed description in

[0084] The reconstruction equation of an apparatus for measuring blood flow velocity distribution is:
[0085]
[0086] Wherein, V1...V M respectively represent the axial average velocities of the first to the Mth reconstruction regions, W NMIndicates the contribution weight value of the flow in the Mth region to the Nth induced potential difference, A1...A M Indicates the areas of the 1st to Mth reconstructed regions, ΔU1...ΔU N Indicates the 1st to Nth measured induced potential differences.
[0087] Among them, the weight value of the change in the induced potential difference caused by the flow in different regions is calculated according to the positions of the measurement electrodes and the reconstructed regions, and the calculation formula is as follows:
[0088]
[0089] In the formula, ψ in Indicates the angle between the line connecting the pole and the position of the measurement electrode and the polar axis, ψ out Indicates the angle between the line connecting the pole and the position of the reference electrode and the polar axis, (r,θ) represents the coordinates of the geometric center of the reconstructed region in the polar coordinates established with the geometric center of the region to be reconstructed as the pole, t represents the iteration coefficient, and its value range is from 1 to infinity, B represents the magnitude of the constant magnetic field, and R represents the cross-sectional radius of the human upper limb.
[0090] Figure 5 This is a schematic diagram of the principle of the method for reconstructing the blood flow velocity distribution of the upper limb based on electromagnetic induction in the embodiments of the present invention. As Figure 4 and 5 shown, taking the human upper limb (arm) as the region to be reconstructed as an example for illustration, in Figure 5 there are the first energized coil a, the second energized coil b, the measurement electrode c, the arterial region d, and the skin f of the human upper limb, Figure 5 is Figure 4 a specific illustration.
[0091] In Figure 4 and Figure 5 step 401 sets a constant and uniform magnetic field at the cross-section of the region to be reconstructed. Specifically, current is passed through the first energized coil a and the second energized coil b to generate a constant magnetic field B in the direction from the second energized coil b to the first energized coil a in the region to be reconstructed.
[0092] In Figure 4 and Figure 5In step 402, n electrodes are arranged outside the cross-section, and the outside of the cross-section is the outside of the skin of the area to be reconstructed. For example, when the area to be reconstructed is the upper limb of the human body, the n electrodes are arranged outside the skin of the upper limb of the human body. Specifically, the n electrodes are 16 electrodes, and the 16 electrodes c are evenly arranged outside the skin f of the upper limb of the human body. The labels of the 16 electrodes are the zeroth electrode e0, the first electrode e1... the fifteenth electrode e15, and the interval between every two electrodes is 22.5 degrees. When there is blood flow in the artery area d, the arterial blood flows in a direction perpendicular to the paper surface to cut the magnetic induction line. According to the principle of electromagnetic induction, a stable induced potential field will be generated at the cross-section of the upper limb, and the 16 electrodes will detect the induced potential. Taking one of the two electrodes as the measuring electrode and the other as the reference electrode and connecting them to the signal acquisition device at the same time will obtain the required induced potential difference signal.
[0093] In Figure 4 and Figure 5 in step 403, taking one of the electrodes as the reference electrode and the remaining n - 1 electrodes as the measuring electrodes, n - 1 induced potential differences are obtained. Specifically, the n electrodes are 16 electrodes. First, taking the zeroth electrode e0 as the reference electrode and the remaining 15 electrodes (the first electrode e1... the fifteenth electrode e15) as the measuring electrodes, 15 potential difference signals will be obtained.
[0094] In Figure 4 and Figure 5 in step 404, in a clockwise or counterclockwise direction, the adjacent electrode of the reference electrode is selected as the new reference electrode, and the remaining n - 1 electrodes are the measuring electrodes, and n - 1 induced potential differences are obtained. Specifically, taking the first electrode e1 as the reference electrode and the remaining 15 electrodes (the zeroth electrode e0, the second electrode e2... the fifteenth electrode e15) as the measuring electrodes, 15 potential difference signals are obtained again.
[0095] In Figure 4 and Figure 5 in step 405, until all the electrodes are traversed as the new reference electrodes, finally n*(n - 1) induced potential differences are obtained. Specifically, then taking the second electrode e2, the third electrode e3... the fifteenth electrode e15 as the reference electrodes in turn, and finally 240 induced potential difference signals are obtained. The traditional measurement method only takes one of the electrodes as the reference electrode and can only obtain 15 induced potential difference signals. The number of induced potential difference signals obtained by this method is 16 times that of the traditional measurement method. In the electromagnetic induction measurement technology, the more effective the number of induced potential difference data, the higher the measurement accuracy.
[0096] If the cross-section of the upper limb of the human body is divided into M reconstructed areas, with Figure 3Taking the partitioning method as an example, the area to be reconstructed is divided into 64 reconstruction areas, where the number h of several scale shapes is 3 and the set angle is 2π / 16. As Figure 3 shown, before calculating the blood flow velocity value of each reconstruction area, the area to be reconstructed is partitioned to obtain several areas, and these several areas are the reconstruction areas, in order to calculate the contribution weight of the blood flow velocity in each reconstruction area to the n*(n - 1) induced potential differences. The labeling method for each reconstruction area is as follows: The area where the polar axis, the first polar radius intersect with the smallest scale shape is the first reconstruction area 1, the area where the polar axis, the first polar radius intersect with the next adjacent scale shape is the second reconstruction area 2, and they are the third reconstruction area 3 and the fourth reconstruction area 4 in sequence from the inside to the outside. After that, in the counterclockwise order, the area where the first polar radius, the second polar radius intersect with the smallest scale shape is the fifth reconstruction area 5, and they are the sixth reconstruction area 6, the seventh reconstruction area 7 and the eighth reconstruction area 8 in sequence from the inside to the outside according to the same method as above. Then, in the counterclockwise order according to the above method, they are labeled 9, 10....64 (not shown in the figure) as the ninth reconstruction area and the tenth reconstruction area.... the sixty-fourth reconstruction area. Among the 64 reconstruction areas, taking the number of electrodes n = 16 as an example, the contribution weight of the blood flow velocity in each reconstruction area to the 16*(16 - 1) induced potential differences is calculated.
[0097] In Figure 4 and Figure 5 taking the n*(n - 1) induced potential differences in step 406 as input data, through the reconstruction equation, calculate the blood flow velocity value of each reconstruction area, and then obtain the blood flow velocity distribution of the area to be reconstructed; where the area to be reconstructed is the area to be measured, and n > 2. Specifically, import the 240 measured induced potential differences as input data into the following reconstruction equation, calculate the blood flow velocity values of each reconstruction area, and then obtain the blood flow velocity distribution at the cross-section of the entire upper limb of the human body.
[0098]

[0100] Among them, according to the positions of the measurement electrodes and the reconstruction areas, calculate the weight values of the changes in the induced potential differences caused by the flows in different areas, and the calculation formula is as follows:
[0101]
[0102] In the formula, ψ in represents the angle between the line connecting the pole and the position of the measurement electrode and the polar axis, ψ out represents the angle between the line connecting the pole and the position of the reference electrode and the polar axis, (r, θ) represents the coordinates of the geometric center of the reconstruction area in the polar coordinates established with the geometric center of the area to be reconstructed as the pole, t represents the iteration coefficient, and its value range is from 1 to infinity, B represents the magnitude of the constant magnetic field; the cross-section of the area to be reconstructed is equivalent to a circle, the shape of the area to be reconstructed is circular, R represents the cross-sectional radius of the cross-section of the area to be reconstructed, that is, the cross-sectional radius of the upper limb of the human body.
[0103] At the same time, the cross-section of the area to be reconstructed is equivalent to a circle, and the shape of the area to be reconstructed is circular; the areas A of M reconstruction areas M are calculated as follows:
[0104]
[0105]
[0106]
[0107] The induced potential difference ΔU N is obtained by actual measurement. Finally, the calculated W NM and A M are substituted into the reconstruction equation, and the velocity values V of each reconstruction area can be obtained M , and finally the blood flow velocity distribution of the area to be reconstructed is obtained.
