Description

Technical Field

[0001] The present invention belongs to the technical field of medical models, and in particular relates to a bowel sound modeling method, electronic equipment and medium based on the bowel sound sound generation mechanism. Background Art

[0002] When the intestine moves, the gas and liquid in the intestinal cavity flow with it, producing an intermittent sound of gas passing through water (or gurgling sound) called bowel sounds. The auscultatory study of bowel sounds has great clinical significance, but the actual bowel sound research is often limited by the acquisition of bowel sound signals. On the one hand, the bowel sound signal itself is non-periodic and highly random, subject to large noise interference, weak signal, large individual differences, and the accuracy of the collected bowel sound signal is limited; on the other hand, in order to achieve a more ideal analysis effect, long-term acoustic monitoring is often required, and bowel sound signals are continuously recorded for several hours, which causes great fatigue and distress to the subjects. Therefore, a digital model of bowel sounds is needed to generate a high-precision and long-duration bowel sound signal for subsequent bowel sound analysis research.

[0003] The existing digital model of bowel sounds models different types of bowel sounds by classifying bowel sounds and setting parameter values ​​related to intestinal movement, so as to approximate the time domain waveform and frequency domain characteristics of bowel sound signals. The algorithm of this model is simple and the simulation bowel sound signal has high accuracy, but the establishment of the model is not related to the structural characteristics of the intestine, and the correlation with intestinal movement is low, and the interpretability of the generated bowel sound signal is poor.

[0091] In order to better understand the present application, the method of this embodiment is further described below.

[0092] The method for digital modeling of bowel sounds based on the bowel sound generation mechanism of this embodiment can be roughly divided into the following processes:

[0093] 1. Obtain intestinal flow field simulation results.

[0094] 1.1. Establish a three-dimensional geometric model of the human intestine and perform preprocessing to meet the requirements of subsequent simulation processing.

[0095] Specifically, Figure 2 As shown, in this embodiment, the colon module of BodyParts3D is selected for analysis, and the selected colon module is preprocessed to obtain the following Figure 3 For the structure shown, the preprocessing includes shrinking the geometry and smoothing in the Space Claim module of Ansys software to simplify the intestinal geometry, and converting from the OBJ file format to the CAD solid structure format through Auto Skin. Figure 3 In the above code, inlet is the entrance and outlet is the exit.

[0096] 1.2. Divide the three-dimensional geometric model of the intestine into fluid domain and solid domain and perform mesh division separately.

[0097] Specifically, the steps include:

[0098] 1.2.1. In the Design Modeler module of Ansys software, the intestinal wall, i.e., the solid domain, is modeled by establishing a surface and performing surface flipping. Among them, establishing a surface is a built-in method of Ansys software.

[0099] 1.2.2. Import the model processed in step 1.2.1 into the Meshing module of Ansys software, suppress the solid domain, select the surface of the fluid domain to name the inlet, outlet, and fluid-solid coupling interface, select the tetrahedron method for meshing, and use Fluent as the solver. The final number of mesh units is 691442, and the mesh unit quality reaches 0.83415. The meshing results of the fluid domain are as follows: Figure 4 shown.

[0100] 1.2.3. Import the model processed in step 1.2.1 into the Transient Structural module of Ansys software, suppress the fluid domain, and name the fluid-solid coupling interface of the solid domain. To simulate the real intestinal wall effect, set the thickness of the solid domain, i.e. the intestinal wall, to 0.01m, and set the intestinal wall material to linear elastic material in the engineering material, with a material density of 2000kg / m 3 , Poisson's ratio is 0.48, and elastic modulus is 10MPa. The triangle method is used for meshing, the solver is Notlinear Machanical, and the number of mesh elements is 4465, the unit quality is 0.96148, and the solid domain meshing results are as follows Figure 5 shown.

[0101] 1.3 Fluid domain simulation settings: Import the three-dimensional geometric model of the intestine in the fluid domain after meshing into the Fluent module, simulate the gas-liquid two-phase flow content, and set the model parameters.

[0102] Specifically, the steps include:

[0103] 1.3.1. Define the material properties of gas-liquid two-phase contents: Intestinal contents include undigested food residues, water, bacteria, digestive juices, gases, etc. This embodiment defines intestinal contents as gas-liquid two-phase flow based on the contribution to bowel sounds and modeling complexity. At the same time, since the speed of intestinal contents is much lower than the speed of sound, it belongs to a low Mach number flow. Under this condition, the density and viscosity of the fluid remain unchanged, and it is an incompressible fluid. Therefore, for the material parameter setting of gas-liquid two-phase contents, the gas phase model uses the air model in the Ansys Fluent module material library, and the material parameters are: density is 1.225 kg / m 3 , the viscosity is 1.7894 × 10 -5kg / (m·s), liquid phase selects custom material density and viscosity, density is 1000kg / m 3 , the viscosity is 0.005kg / (m·s).

[0104] 1.3.2. Define turbulence model and multiphase flow model: This embodiment aims to simulate the flow field and acoustic field of the colon for a period of time after a meal. The corresponding flow field model is: the chyme enters the colon cavity filled with air and containing a certain volume of chyme under the push of peristalsis. Combined with the content flow mentioned in step 1.3.1 as an incompressible fluid, the multiphase flow model uses the VOF model, with 2 phases, in which the main phase is set as the gas phase, the secondary phase is set as the liquid phase, the two-phase interaction is set as the surface tension model, and the surface tension coefficient is set to 0.075; due to the low velocity of the intestinal contents, the Reynolds number of the content flow is low, so the turbulence model is selected as the RNG k-ε turbulence model.

[0105] 1.3.3. Set initial conditions and boundary conditions: According to the flow field model of this embodiment mentioned in step 1.3.2, define the inlet condition as velocity inlet, the inlet enters the liquid phase with a volume fraction of 1, and the velocity is 0.015m / s, simulating the chyme entering the colon under the action of peristalsis; the outlet condition is pressure outlet, and the outlet pressure is 0Pa; set the unit mark area, and the area is initialized to the liquid phase with a volume fraction of 1, simulating the retained chyme at the bottom of the colon before the inlet chyme enters. The area is set as follows Figure 6 As shown; the rest of the area is initialized to a gas phase with a volume fraction of 1. After initialization, the gas volume fraction is as follows Figure 7 As shown;

[0106] 1.3.4. Set dynamic mesh: Define the dynamic mesh method of the fluid-solid coupling interface as system coupling, which is achieved through smoothing and re-meshing. Smoothing refers to a technical method that optimizes the position of mesh nodes during mesh deformation to make mesh deformation smoother, avoid inappropriate mesh distortion, and maintain mesh quality and geometric structure stability.

[0107] 1.4. Solid domain simulation settings: Import the three-dimensional geometric model of the intestine in the solid domain after meshing into the Transient Structural module, set the intestinal wall material parameters, and simulate intestinal movement.

[0108] Specifically, the steps include:

[0109] 1.4.1. Set displacement boundary conditions to simulate segmental contraction of the intestine. According to step 1.3.2, this embodiment simulates the flow field and sound field in the colon for a period of time after a meal. For a period of time after a meal, segmental contraction is active, which can achieve full mixing of the contents and make a huge contribution to the generation of bowel sounds. Therefore, this embodiment is set to simulate segmented contraction with a contraction period of 4s, a contraction wavelength of 0.07m, and a contraction amplitude of 0.001m. This is achieved in the Transient Mechanical module by imposing displacement boundary condition constraints on the wall. The specific settings are as follows: Figure 8 As shown;

[0110] 1.4.2, such as Fig. 9 As shown in the figure, simple supports are set to constrain the deformation of intestinal movement. Setting simple supports is a built-in method of Ansys software.

[0111] 1.4.3. Set up the fluid-structure coupling interface to realize data transfer.

[0112] 1.5. Use the System Coupling module to perform bidirectional fluid-solid coupling, establish data transmission between the fluid domain and the solid domain, and simulate the intestinal flow field.

[0113] Specifically, the fluid domain transmits the pressure data to the solid domain, and the solid domain transmits the interface node displacement information to the fluid domain. The end time is set to 4s, the time step is 0.0005s, the minimum number of iterations is 1, and the maximum number of iterations is 5, thereby realizing bidirectional fluid-solid coupling simulation and obtaining the intestinal process simulation results.

[0114] 1.6. Import the intestinal process simulation results obtained in step 1.5 as the sound source into the sound field model for sound field simulation, obtain the bowel sound simulation signal at the collection point, perform spectrum analysis on the bowel sound simulation signal, and verify the authenticity of the bowel sound simulation signal.

[0115] Specifically, the steps include:

[0116] 1.6.1. Open the acoustic model in the Fluent module of Ansys software, select the FW-H acoustic analogy method, set the noise source to the fluid-solid coupling interface, and set the receiving point (i.e. monitoring point) as follows: Fig.10 shown.

[0117] 1.6.2. After the simulation is completed, obtain the acoustic signal and spectrum of the monitoring point, such as Fig.11 , Fig.12 shown.

[0118] 1.6.3. Verify the results from two aspects: doctor verification and parameter verification, and evaluate the simulated bowel sound signal: Doctor verification is the subjective evaluation of the simulated bowel sound signal by the doctor based on clinical experience. Parameter verification depends on the multi-dimensional characteristics of the time-frequency domain of bowel sounds: Bowel sound signal characteristics such as short duration of bowel sounds, the main frequency components of bowel sounds between 60-1500Hz, and bowel sounds can be classified into four types: single burst, multiple bursts, continuous random sound, and harmonic sound.

[0119] 1.7. Compare the time and frequency domain characteristics of the simulated bowel sound signal with the real bowel sound, modify the model accordingly, and perform sound field simulation again to obtain a more simulated digital bowel sound signal.

[0120] Specifically, Fig.12 As shown in the figure, the low-frequency components of the amplitude spectrum of the simulated bowel sound signal obtained by monitoring point 2 (i.e., receiver-2) are mainly concentrated below 50Hz, with low peaks near 300Hz and 520Hz, and the amplitude value at the 0Hz frequency point, that is, the DC component, is extremely large. Compared with the statistical frequency domain range of 60-1500Hz of the real bowel sound signal, the frequency is lower. Therefore, the simulated segmented contraction cycle is shortened accordingly, and the periodic displacement constraint frequency is increased. In addition, the amplitude spectrum of the simulated signal is lower than the amplitude spectrum of the real signal as a whole. The displacement constraint amplitude is increased, the liquid phase inlet velocity is increased, and the intestinal wall simulation material is changed to increase the overall energy of the simulated signal and improve the amplitude spectrum. The process of performing the sound field simulation again can refer to step 1.6, which will not be repeated here.

Figure 8 The horizontal coordinate Z represents the coordinate value of the Z-axis direction of the three-dimensional geometric model of the intestine.

[0123] It should also be noted that: Fig. 9 Simple supports 1-4 in the figure represent simple support operations applied at different positions.

[0124] It should also be noted that: Fig.11 The ordinate is the acoustic pressure, the e in the ordinate is the scientific notation, and the abscissa is the time, in seconds.
