Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] The invention relates to the technical field of fat emulsion phantoms, in particular to a fat emulsion phantom that can be used for ultrasound and MRI-PDFF detection. Background Art
[0002] In 2023, fatty liver has replaced chronic hepatitis B as the most common chronic liver disease in my country. The current gold standard for detecting fatty liver is histopathological examination, but it is invasive and has differences and repeatability between observers, which limit its clinical application. Magnetic resonance proton density fat fraction (MRI-PDFF) is currently the most commonly used imaging method for detecting fatty liver, but it has certain limitations due to personnel and equipment limitations, as well as differences in image processing between different machines.
[0003] Ultrasonic liver fat quantification technology is based on the principle that when ultrasound waves propagate in tissues, they will produce a greater degree of attenuation in fatty livers. It can image and quantify the degree of acoustic attenuation and is a new ultrasound detection technology for fatty liver. It is non-invasive, easy to use, and does not require additional ultrasound capabilities compared to conventional ultrasound imaging. It has a high application value in the early screening and diagnosis of fatty liver. However, there is currently no unified conclusion on the diagnosis and grading standards of fatty liver using ultrasonic attenuation coefficients: different manufacturers use different units to measure ultrasonic attenuation coefficients, such as the Siemens UDFF system uses percentages, while the Canon ATI system uses dB / cm / MHz; different acoustic attenuation measurement systems have inconsistent thresholds for the diagnosis and grading of fatty liver, and the degree of differentiation is low, such as the ATI diagnostic threshold for fatty liver is 0.64-0.72dB / cm / MHz for mild fatty liver, 0.72-0.79dB / cm / MHz for moderate fatty liver, and >0.79dB / cm / MHz for severe fatty liver, which has low differentiation in clinical use; there is currently a lack of research on how to correspond the ultrasonic attenuation coefficient to MRI-PDFF, which results in a lack of corresponding controls and reference standards for the detection of fatty liver using ultrasonic attenuation coefficients, thus limiting its clinical application. Therefore, it is particularly important to construct a phantom that can be prepared with different fat ratios and can perform MRI-PDFF and ultrasound fat quantitative detection simultaneously, to unify the ultrasound attenuation measurement values of different machine manufacturers, and to standardize and compare the ultrasound parameters with the fat concentration and MRI-PDFF measurements.
[0004] The existing phantoms are difficult to make and have a small size. For example, the Chinese invention with publication number CN117192456A discloses a "magnetic resonance model for detecting fat content and its construction method, verification method and application". Through ultrasonic emulsification, in vitro fat correction models with different contents are obtained under specific emulsification parameters. However, the ultrasonic emulsification method has equipment and technical limitations, and the model dedicated to magnetic resonance is small in size and cannot meet the needs of ultrasonic scanning. Therefore, the present invention intends to improve the production of a fat emulsion phantom to meet the requirements of ultrasonic scanning and MRI-PDFF. Summary of the invention
