Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This application relates to the field of intelligent medicine, and specifically relates to a method, device, program product and computer-readable storage medium for preparing radioactive monodisperse particles, generating aerosol and in-situ quantitative animal inhalation deposition. Background Art
[0002] The research on radioactive aerosols began in the mid-20th century and is mainly used in fields such as the nuclear industry, medical radiotherapy, and environmental radioactive pollution monitoring. In animal models, the research on the deposition distribution of radioactive aerosols is an important means to evaluate the potential hazards of inhaled radioactive substances to the human body. By simulating the human respiratory tract structure and using animals (such as mice, rabbits, monkeys, etc.) to study the deposition pattern of aerosol particles in the respiratory tract, in order to understand how aerosols with different particle sizes, shapes, and chemical properties affect their distribution in the respiratory system. The deposition distribution of aerosols in the respiratory tract may be very uneven, which depends on the aerosol particle size, shape, density, as well as the geometric structure and hydrodynamic characteristics of the respiratory tract. Among them, the aerosol particle size has a significant impact on its deposition in the respiratory tract. Smaller particles can penetrate deep into the bronchioles and alveoli, while larger particles are deposited in the upper respiratory tract. Currently, most of the existing radioactive animal inhalation exposure aerosol generators use two types of generators, namely liquid aerosol generators and electric spark + condensation devices, for quasi-monodisperse (polydisperse) aerosol generation. At the same time, the existing small animal deposition distribution quantification is all regional quantification, which cannot meet the real quantification of single-sized hydrophilic / hydrophobic aerosol particles in the respiratory tract. In addition, for radioactive aerosols, their concentration in the respiratory tract is usually low, and the detection technology needs to have high sensitivity to accurately capture the deposition distribution of these tiny particles, which poses high requirements for detection equipment and methods.
