Abstract
Description
TECHNICAL FIELD
[0001] The present application relates to the field of microscopic endoscopy, in particular to a deep penetration microscopic endoscopy imaging method with self-adaptive scattering. BACKGROUND
[0002] Microscopic imaging technology is an important supporting technology for biomedical research. Fluorescence microscopic imaging technology has become an indispensable research tool in the field of biomedical research because it can label the internal substances and structures of the sample with fluorescence. Compared with traditional microscopic imaging systems, fluorescence microscopic imaging can capture more detailed specific tissue structures of the sample because it can use the fluorescence emitted by the sample itself to perform imaging. Moreover, fluorescence markers can selectively display the characteristics of part of the structure because they only emit fluorescence on specific tissue structures, which reduces the background interference of the image and helps to improve the contrast of the microscopic image.
[0003] The unique advantages of fluorescence microscopic technology over traditional microscopic imaging technology have enabled it to be rapidly applied to in vivo biological tissue imaging. A variety of new fluorescent dyes developed through modern organic chemistry technology have enabled fluorescence microscopic technology to be widely used in early detection of cancer cells, cell dynamics, multi-layer neuron calcium ion imaging, gene editing and many other emerging biomedical fields, bringing new breakthroughs to the study of various pathologies.
[0004] On the other hand, endoscopy technology has developed from the earliest rigid tube endoscope to the current electronic endoscope over the past two hundred years, with a huge improvement in imaging quality. Electronic endoscopes generally use an external cold light source to project illumination light into the body cavity through a light guide fiber, and then collect the image inside the body cavity by an image sensor at the front end of the endoscope. Since modern electronic endoscopes generally use CCD for imaging, the image has very high resolution and can observe the fine pathological morphology of the surface of the body cavity. However, since the electronic endoscope can only collect the image of the surface of the measured tissue, it is difficult to identify the image at a certain depth from the surface of the cavity. As the imaging depth gradually increases, the scattering effect of the measured sample on fluorescence microscopic imaging becomes more and more obvious. When the imaging depth reaches several hundred microns, the biological tissue will produce strong scattering to the penetrating illumination light, causing distortion of the originally flat phase front of the illumination light, resulting in a serious decline in image quality. For in vivo tissues, the biological environment inside the in vivo tissue also changes slowly, which will also cause a slow change in the scattering properties of the in vivo tissue, further increasing the image distortion when observing deep penetration samples.
[0005] In summary, the existing microscopic endoscopy imaging method has serious image distortion when observing deep penetration samples due to scattering, which affects the image quality. SUMMARY

The controller (7) is configured to perform the following steps: S1. Measure the optical fiber input-output mapping relationship at a specified penetration depth, wherein the specified penetration depth is the same as the focal length of the light output from the optical fiber; S2. When biological samples are set at the same specified penetration depth, traverse the effective pixels; S3. When traversing each effective pixel, adjust the traversal range of the phase constant of each pixel. After the traversal is completed, obtain the phase constant corresponding to each pixel that makes the light intensity the maximum value. S4. Integrate the fiber input-output mapping relationship and the phase constant corresponding to each pixel that maximizes the light intensity to obtain a set of adaptive scattering matrices corresponding to each pixel. S5. Perform a pixel-by-pixel scan, call the data of the adaptive scattering matrix corresponding to the pixel as the phase parameter, obtain the light intensity corresponding to the pixel, and combine the light intensities into a grayscale image, wherein the grayscale image is a microscopic endoscopic image. S1 is executed in the fiber calibration state, S2~S5 are executed in the real-time imaging state, and the optical path of the adjustment device is in the real-time imaging state after S1 is executed and before S2 is executed. The specific steps for data integration are as follows: The image corresponding to each pixel in the mapping relationship is converted into a matrix with grayscale values as elements. This matrix is then rearranged into a one-dimensional column vector in column-major order. The column vectors corresponding to all pixels are combined sequentially into a matrix, where each column of the matrix is the column vector of the corresponding pixel. Then, the phase constant corresponding to each pixel in S3 that maximizes the light intensity is determined. i The nth phase constant and the matrix of the nth phase constant i Perform scalar multiplication to obtain a matrix whose length and width are both the product of the image's length and width. This matrix is the adaptive scattering matrix.
