Description

TECHNICAL FIELD

[0001] The present application relates to the field of photodynamic diagnosis, and in particular to a fluorescence imaging method and device based on light source intensity adjustment and a storage medium. BACKGROUND

[0002] Photo dynamic diagnosis (PDD) is a new type of diagnostic technique, which allows photosensitizing substances to accumulate in diseased tissues and emit fluorescence when excited by light, thereby determining the presence or absence of disease and diseased tissues.

[0003] This technique is widely used in the field of medical diagnosis. For example, in the diagnosis of tumors, photosensitive drugs are selectively enriched at cancer cells; then the cancer tissue is irradiated with excitation light, causing the enriched photosensitive drugs to produce fluorescence; by analyzing the intensity and distribution of the fluorescence, the location and condition of the cancer can be determined. For another example, in the process of bladder PDD imaging, blue-violet light is used as excitation light to irradiate photosensitizing agents in the tissue, exciting red fluorescence and imaging it.

[0004] However, in the process of bladder PDD imaging, the metabolite of urine, riboflavin, will be excited by excitation light to emit green fluorescence, thereby interfering with the contrast of PDD fluorescence. The existing method is to change the excitation light wavelength, such as using 500nm as the photosensitizer excitation wavelength, to reduce the excitation efficiency of riboflavin. However, changing the excitation wavelength also causes the fluorescence excitation efficiency of photosensitizers to decrease, and the fluorescence brightness of PDD imaging to decrease. At the same time, it causes more loss of visible light imaging band, which is not conducive to traditional white light imaging. SUMMARY

[0048] During the process of bladder PDD imaging, the metabolite riboflavin of urine will be excited by excitation light, and green fluorescence will be emitted, thereby interfering with the contrast of PDD fluorescence. The existing method is to change the excitation light band, such as using 500nm as the photosensitizer excitation wavelength, to reduce the excitation efficiency of riboflavin. But changing the excitation wavelength will also cause the fluorescence excitation efficiency of the photosensitizer to decrease, and the fluorescence brightness of PDD imaging to decrease. At the same time, it causes more loss of visible light imaging band, which is not conducive to traditional white light imaging.

[0049] In view of this, referring to Figure 1 , the present application provides a fluorescence imaging method based on light source intensity adjustment, which comprises:

[0050] 101, determining the working mode.

[0051] The fluorescence imaging method based on light source intensity adjustment provided by the present application is applied to a fluorescence imaging device for light intensity adjustment, which is provided with a trap wave filter and a light compensation module.

[0052] Specifically, referring to Figure 2The application also provides a fluorescence imaging device based on light source intensity adjustment, which comprises a blue light source 1, a green light source 2, a red light source 3, a light compensation module 4, an imaging lens group 5, a trap wave filter 6, a photosensitive element 7 and an image processor 8.

[0053] The device has two modes of PDD fluorescence mode and photodynamic white light image mode. The device can also have other modes in the future, which are not limited here.

[0054] 102. In the PDD fluorescence mode, when the blue light source is turned on, the blue light is reflected by the observed tissue, and then the green fluorescence spectrum generated by the excitation of the riboflavin is filtered by the trap wave filter to reduce the interference of the green fluorescence on the PDD fluorescence contrast.

[0055] When it is determined that the working mode is the PDD fluorescence mode, the blue light source 1 is turned on, and the green light source 2 and the red light source 3 are turned off. After the blue light emitted by the blue light source 1 irradiates the observed tissue, the imaging lens group 5 is used to collect the PDD fluorescence generated by the excitation in the observed tissue and the green fluorescence spectrum generated by the riboflavin. The trap wave filter 6 is used to filter the riboflavin fluorescence. The PDD fluorescence transmits through the trap wave filter 6 to the photosensitive element 7. The photosensitive element 7 is used to convert the optical signal into an electrical signal and transmit it to the image processor 8 for processing to output a PDD fluorescence image.

[0056] In this way, the green fluorescence spectrum generated by the excitation of the riboflavin is filtered by the trap wave filter 6 to reduce the interference of the green fluorescence on the PDD fluorescence contrast.

[0057] 103. In the photodynamic white light image mode, the red, green and blue light sources are turned on at the same time. The red, green and blue light emitted by the red, green and blue light sources is adjusted by the light compensation module according to the pre-set light power so that the light reflected by the observed tissue and then passing through the trap wave filter is white light. The light compensation module controls the light power of the red light and the blue light to be consistent, and the output power of the green light is higher than that of the red light or the blue light.

[0058] In the photodynamic white light image mode, the blue light source 1, the green light source 2 and the red light source 3 are turned on under the control of the light compensation module 4. The red, green and blue light emitted by the blue light source 1, the green light source 2 and the red light source 3 is adjusted by the light compensation module 4 according to the pre-set light power. The reflected light of the three-color light reflected by the observed tissue is collected by the imaging lens group 5, and then enters the photosensitive element 7 after being filtered by the trap wave filter 6. The photosensitive element 7 is used to convert the optical signal into an electrical signal and transmit it to the image processor 8 for processing to output a white light image.

[0059] The light compensation module 4 controls the light power outputted by the blue light source 1 and the red light source 3 to be consistent, and the green light source 2 outputs power higher than the light power of the blue light source 1 or the red light source 3.

[0060] It should be noted that the light compensation module 4 adjusts the light output ratio of red, green and blue light according to a pre-set light power ratio, wherein the pre-set light power ratio of red, green and blue is related to the transmittance of the notch filter 6.

[0061] Further, if it is determined that the transmittance ratio of red, green and blue light of the notch filter 6 is a:b:a, then the light compensation module 4 controls the output power ratio of red, green and blue light spectrum to be b:a:b, and a and b are positive numbers. For example, if it is determined that the transmittance ratio of red, green and blue light of the notch filter 6 is 1:0.4:1, then it can be determined that the light compensation module 4 controls the output power ratio of red, green and blue light spectrum to be 0.4:1:0.4. This is only an example and is not a limitation of the present application.

[0062] It should be noted that the light power of red, green and blue light emitted by the red, green and blue light sources entering the light sensing element 7 is respectively:

[0065] It can be understood that in the photodynamic white light image mode, the light compensation module 4 controls the output power of red, green and blue light so that the difference percentage of the red, green and blue light power entering the light sensing element 7 and the average power of the three colors is less than or equal to a preset difference percentage threshold. The preset difference percentage threshold can be set according to the actual situation, and for example, it can be set to 10%. This is only an example and is not a limitation of the present application.

[0066] Further, the average power of red, green and blue light is:

[0067]

[0068] ​The difference percentage of the red light power and the average power of the three colors is:

[0069]

[0070] The difference percentage of the green light power and the average power of the three colors is:

[0077] In the photodynamic white light image mode, the blue light source 1, the green light source 2 and the red light source 3 are all turned on under the control of the light compensation module 4, and the red, green and blue light emitted by the blue light source 1, the green light source 2 and the red light source 3 all pass through the light compensation module 4 for pre-set light power adjustment, the three-color light passes through the observation tissue and is reflected, the reflected light is collected by the imaging lens group 5, and then enters the photosensitive element 7 after being filtered by the wave-trap filter 6. The photosensitive element 7 is used for converting the optical signal into an electrical signal and transmitting to the image processor 8 for processing, and outputting a white light image. The light compensation module 4 controls the light power output by the blue light source 1 and the red light source 3 to be consistent, and the output power of the green light source 2 is higher than that of the blue light source 1 or the red light source 3.

[0078] It should be noted that the light compensation module 4 adjusts the light output of the red, green and blue three-color light according to the pre-set light power ratio, wherein the ratio of the pre-set light power ratio of the red, green and blue three colors is related to the transmittance of the wave-trap filter 6.

[0079] Further, if it is determined that the transmittance ratio of the wave-trap filter 6 for the red, green and blue three-color light is a:b:a, then the output power of the red, green and blue light spectrum is controlled by the light compensation module 4 to be b:a:b, and a and b are both positive numbers.

[0080] The light power of the red, green and blue light emitted by the red, green and blue light source entering the photosensitive element 7 is respectively:
