Description

Technical Field

[0001] This invention relates to the fields of medical testing and traditional Chinese medicine engineering technology, and in particular to a comprehensive evaluation method for the efficacy of facial acupuncture based on multi-angle optical imaging. Background Technology

[0002] The evaluation of the efficacy of facial acupuncture therapy needs to take into account facial complexion, muscle function, and skin morphology. Existing technologies are either too inaccurate, like ordinary cameras, or too complex and expensive, like hyperspectral and 3D motion capture systems. The market lacks a dedicated device that can provide reliable quantitative data while being easy to operate. Systems based on a single color camera are low in cost, but have limited evaluation dimensions and accuracy.

[0003] Existing facial assessment technologies have significant limitations: one type is conventional imaging equipment, which, although easy to operate and low in cost, can only acquire two-dimensional surface information and cannot distinguish between skin surface reflection and subcutaneous physiological signals, making it difficult to accurately reflect the state of Qi and blood and changes in deep tissues; the other type is high-end multi-sensor systems, which can achieve multi-dimensional data acquisition, but the equipment structure is complex, the operation is cumbersome and the cost is high, and the requirements for the use environment and the professional skills of the operators are strict, making it difficult to adapt to the actual application scenarios of TCM clinical practice.

[0004] Meanwhile, the evaluation of the efficacy of acupuncture in traditional Chinese medicine needs to take into account the coordinated changes of qi and blood, meridians, and morphology. Existing technologies often lack targeted adaptation to traditional Chinese medicine theories, either focusing only on a single physiological indicator or deviating from the core of meridian differentiation, resulting in a weak correlation between the collected data and the clinical efficacy judgment, and failing to provide effective support for the diagnosis and treatment of traditional Chinese medicine.

The acupuncture efficacy evaluation dataset was matched with thresholds set for TCM syndrome types, and a deep learning model was used to fuse multimodal data to generate evaluation results.

[0007] In the above technical solution, continuous image capture is performed using the following process: A feature spectrum with three different polarization angles (0°, 45°, and 90°) is sequentially output through an LED array. This feature spectrum includes four types of light: 450nm blue light, 550nm green light, 650nm red light, and 940nm near-infrared light, generating 12 sets of imaging conditions. Under each imaging condition, the human face is continuously captured by a camera to obtain continuous images. Clear images are selected from the continuous images under each imaging condition based on the gradient value of each pixel on the continuous image plane. The ambient light intensity of the clear images under each imaging condition is recorded, and the ambient light intensity is calibrated in real time using a light sensor. The real-time calibrated clear images are then processed using a polarization extinction model and a spectral separation algorithm to highlight the oil reflection on the facial skin surface and extract the dynamic signal of blood flow velocity in subcutaneous capillaries.

[0014] In the above technical solution, in step 5, the face is illuminated by a uniform near-infrared light source to avoid strong light stimulation of facial muscles. Then, a set sequence of facial expressions is guided and executed. The set sequence of facial expressions includes: frowning and raising the forehead to activate the Du meridian and Bladder meridian in the forehead; pursing the lips and puffing out the cheeks to activate the Ren meridian and Stomach meridian around the mouth; lifting the side of the face and lifting the corners of the mouth diagonally upward to activate the Gallbladder meridian and Large Intestine meridian in the cheek; blinking and frowning to simultaneously activate the Liver meridian and Triple Energizer meridian around the eyes. The camera captures instantaneous changes in muscle movement during the execution of a pre-defined sequence of facial expressions, records the motion trajectory of the evaluation area, obtains video frames, analyzes pixel motion between video frames, calculates the strain value and contraction velocity of the muscles in the evaluation area, and maps the strain field to the corresponding meridian lines, as well as the contraction velocity to the corresponding meridian lines.

[0016] Compared with the prior art, the beneficial effects of the present invention are: By deeply integrating the TCM meridian differentiation theory with optical imaging technology, the system can accurately locate acupoints and meridian-related areas, capture the synergistic changes in the flow of Qi and blood, muscle movement and meridian response, and transform the traditional subjective judgment of efficacy into an objective and quantifiable indicator system, which significantly improves the scientificity and credibility of the evaluation results. The integrated system enables the simultaneous collection of multi-dimensional information such as complexion, blood circulation, skin structure, and muscle dynamics. This avoids the complex operation and high cost of multi-sensor fusion, and makes up for the lack of data dimensions of a single device, making it suitable for the actual application scenarios of TCM clinical practice. By utilizing technologies such as dynamic polarization spectroscopy and multi-angle three-dimensional reconstruction, interference signals on the skin surface can be effectively eliminated, and subtle changes in subcutaneous blood and qi dynamics, skin microstructure, and muscle movement can be deeply captured. This allows for the discovery of efficacy differences that are difficult to detect using traditional assessment methods, providing a precise basis for real-time adjustments to acupuncture plans. In line with the dialectical logic of traditional Chinese medicine regarding qi, blood, meridians, and morphology, optical imaging data is combined with traditional Chinese medicine syndrome classification and meridian response patterns. The resulting assessment report contains both objective quantitative data and aligns with the clinical diagnostic thinking of traditional Chinese medicine, providing a feasible path for the assessment of integrated traditional Chinese and Western medicine.

The set expression sequence includes: frowning and raising the forehead to activate the Du meridian and Bladder meridian in the forehead; pursing the lips and puffing out the cheeks to activate the Ren meridian and Stomach meridian around the mouth; lifting the side of the face and lifting the corners of the mouth diagonally upward to activate the Gallbladder meridian and Large Intestine meridian in the cheek; blinking and frowning to simultaneously activate the Liver meridian and Triple Energizer meridian around the eyes. The camera captures instantaneous changes in muscle movement during the execution of a pre-defined sequence of facial expressions, records the motion trajectory of the evaluation area, obtains video frames, analyzes pixel motion between video frames, calculates the strain value and contraction velocity of the muscles in the evaluation area, and maps the strain field to the corresponding meridian lines, as well as the contraction velocity to the corresponding meridian lines. Obtain the angle between the muscle movement direction of a pixel and the meridian direction. Furthermore, the correlation between exercise intensity and acupoint distance was established within the assessment area to complete muscle dynamics data acquisition. The analysis of pixel motion between video frames specifically involves calculating the strain values ​​of the muscle in the evaluation region of the pixel at any given time in the x and y axes based on the displacement of the pixel motion between video frames, and then calculating the strain field using the dense optical flow method. ; in , Let be the strain values ​​of the pixel at time t in the x-axis and y-axis directions. , Let x and y be the displacements of the pixel at time t along the x and y axes. , The pixel interval is [number].
