技术领域
本公开涉及眼底成像技术领域,尤其是涉及一种多光谱发生单元及眼底成像系统与方法。
背景技术
通常,眼底成像系统可以采用卤素灯或氙气白光光源、发光二极管或扫描激光器作为光源,获取眼底视网膜图像。目前的眼底照相机像素传感器,使用不同滤镜技术将白光分成红绿蓝光谱,来获取视网膜图像。
使用氙气或其它白光光源,及红绿蓝图像采集装置的视网膜成像可以生成视网膜或眼前节的彩色图像,但氙气白光光源照明光在不同波长上的功率差异较大而具有局限性。将氙气白光光用滤镜分离成多个窄带光谱任务量大,难以实现;同时,氙光照明光很强,重复照射会导致瞳孔收缩减小,使成像变得困难。眼底成像也可以使用激光扫描照射技术,激光束通过针孔给光。扫描激光器可以获取的离散波长很少,但激光成本昂贵,体积大,需要占用设备很大的内部空间,故激光扫描实用性较差,且对眼睛使用激光存在很大的安全隐患。

为使本公开实施例的目的、技术方案和优点更加清楚,下面将结合附图对本公开的技术方案进行清楚、完整地描述,显然,所描述的实施例是本公开一部分实施例,而不是全部的实施例。基于本公开中的实施例,本领域普通技术人员在没有做出创造性劳动前提下所获得的所有其他实施例,都属于本公开保护的范围。
考虑到现有的被配置成眼底成像的光源性能较差,导致眼底成像的局限性较大的问题,本公开实施例提供了一种多光谱发生单元及眼底成像系统与方法;该技术可以应用于眼底成像系统中,还可以应用于眼底照相机中;另外,该多光谱光发生单元还可以应用于其他成像系统或照明系统中。该技术可以采用相关的软件或硬件实现,下面通过实施例进行描述。

参见图2所示的另一种多光谱光发生单元100的结构示意图,该多光谱光发生单元100包括控制单元101,一个或多个照明单元102和光导器件103;每个照明单元102包括发光二极管矩阵,每组发光二极管矩阵发出多种波长的光;光束整形单元104的输入端与照明单元102发光二极管矩阵相接;光束整形单元104的输出端与光导器件103相接;光导器件103的输出端附有光束均匀发散单元;
该控制单元101将接收到由中央控制器105发送的控制指令,触发指定的照明单元102发光二极管矩阵发出设定波长的光;光束整形单元104被配置成调节对照明单元102的发光二极管矩阵发出的各个波长的光线分布,以使各个波长的光线均匀分布在光束整形单元104的输出端的截面上;光导器件103按照设定的排列方式排列光纤,将光束整形单元104的输出光整形,以输出设定形状的多光谱光;随之光束均匀发散单元109将设定的形状的光进一步均匀发散输出。
参见图3所示的另一种多光谱光发生单元100的结构示意图,该多光谱光发生单元100包括控制单元101,一个或多个照明单元102;该多光谱光发生单元100还包括光束整形单元104;
光束整形单元104的输入端与照明单元102的发光二极管矩阵相接;光束整形单元104被配置成调节对照明单元102的发光二极管矩阵发出的各个波长的光线分布,以使各个波长的光线均匀分布在光束整形单元104的输出端的截面上,随之光束均匀发散单元109将设定的形状的光进一步均匀发散从而输出设定形状的多光谱光。
上述照明单元102发光二极管矩阵可以由多个高功率的发光二极管排列而成;每组照明单元102发光二极管矩阵紧凑排列;例如,如果照明单元102包括9个发光二极管组成的矩阵,则可以3×3的形式排列;如果照明单元102包括个发光二极管组成的矩阵,则可以4×4的形式排列;当然,还可以包括更多数量的发光二极管组成的矩阵;排列出的照明单元102发光二极管通排列为矩形,尤其可以为正方形;如此,多光谱光发生单元100可以通过空间复用生成实现设定波长的发光二极管组合。
本实施方式中,上述光束整形单元104可以采用匀光棒或其它光学玻璃器件对照明单元102发光二极管矩阵发出的各个波长的光线进行匀光处理,进而将处理后的光线传输至光导器件103;该光导器件103还可以采用多束光纤,每束光纤包含多个纤芯,在输出端对纤芯进行重新分组、排列的方式,由对照明单元102发光二极管矩阵发出的各个波长的光线进行匀光处理,进而传输至照明光路的输入端。
上述光导器件103可以采用结构件等对光束进行重新排列,例如,排列成半环形、全环形等。
本公开实施例提供的一种多光谱光发生单元100,控制单元101将从中央控制器105发送的控制指令转换为控制信号,触发指定的照明单元102中,指定的发光二极管矩阵发出设定波长及设定能量的光;再通过光束整形单元104调节照明单元102发光二极管矩阵发出的各个波长的光线分布,以使各个波长的光线均匀分布在光束整形单元104的输出端截面上;通过光导器件103按照设定的排列方式排列输出端的光纤,以输出对应形状的多 光谱光;该方式中,通过对发光二极管矩阵的光进行匀光处理,可以使各个波长的光线均匀照射在眼底,为眼底成像系统提供了性能较佳的多光谱光发生单元100,提高了眼底成像的能力,使成像更加清晰。
通常,发光二极管、激光或其他光源发出的光,经过光收集、多光谱通道聚集、多光谱优化等处理,可以得到期望的光路截面形状和功率;基于此,本公开实施例还提供了另一种多光谱光发生单元100,该多光谱光发生单元100在图1中所示光源基础上实现;具体地,参见图4所示的一种多光谱光发生单元100中,照明单元102的结构示意图;该照明单元102包括多个发光二极管组成的矩阵,发光二极管矩阵排列成正方形阵列。当然,发光二极管矩阵还可以排列成其他形状,例如,直接排列成全环形或半环形等。
如图4中,照明单元102发光二极管矩阵优选可以以下述形式实现:每个发光二极管为边长为1毫米的正方形,并具有特征准高斯谱;当矩阵由9个发光二极管组成时,矩阵可以3×3的形式排列;9个发光二级管紧凑排列,距离很近,形成的正方形阵列边长可以为3.3毫米。
在实际实现时,9个发光二极管的矩阵中,每个发光二极管对应一种波长,共9种波长;还可以是16组以4×4形式排列的发光二极管矩阵,共对应16种波长;还可以是25组以5×5形式排列的发光二极管矩阵,共对应25种波长。
在该实施例中,上述光导器件103可以通过多种形式实现;在其中一种实施方式中,光导器件103包括与照明单元102的发光二极管矩阵数量相匹配的光纤子束;每个光导器件103的光纤子束包括设定数量的光纤;在光导器件103的输入端,每组光纤子束的纤芯均匀排列在相对应的发光二极管矩阵的发光面;每个光纤子束与每个发光二极管位置相对应;每个光纤子束包含每个光纤子束中的一个或多个光纤;在光导器件103的输出端,形成设定形状及设定数量的光纤。另外,该光纤束可以采用多个阶跃折射率光纤的组合实现。
以3×3的排列形式的发光二极管矩阵为例进行说明,由于发光二极管的数量为9个,该光导器件103也包括9组光纤束;每组光纤束可以包括25个光纤,25个光纤以5×5的形式排列为正方形,每根纤芯的直径约为0.2毫米,则该正方形的边长约为1毫米,与每个发光二极管的边长(1毫米)相匹配;在光导器件103的输出端,形成9个子束,每个子束包括25个光纤,分别来自上述9组光纤束。
通过上述方式,照明单元102发光二极管矩阵发出的各个波长的光线可以在光导器件103的输出端的界面上均匀地分布,其均匀度的量化间隔与每组光纤束中纤芯的直径相关;当然,还可以采用直径更小的纤芯,以使相同面积下,每组光纤束包含更多的纤芯,以降低上述量化间隔,提高光谱的均匀度。
上述子束可以根据实际的成像需求,排列成任意形状,例如,排列成环形、半环形或其他部分环形的形状。
在该实施例中,上述光束均匀发散单元109可以是毛玻璃扩散片,并具有简易,低成本,取得较好的散光效果。
进一步地,上述多光谱光发生单元100还包括光能量探测器106;该光能量探测器106可以直接安装在发光二极管矩阵附近,也可与光纤束中的一个或多个纤芯连接,被配置成探测光源的输出功率及能量。该光功率探测器在经过校准及标定之后,可以进行实时功率监测,电子控制以及安全的硬切断。上述其中一个子束连接到光电探测器或者光功率探测器,被配置成功率监测;检测到的功率参数可以反馈至控制单元101,以使用户有效地对发光功率和能量进行灵活控制和调整,保证日常使用的曝光量低于安全阈值水平,避免光照对眼睛的损害。
在另一种实施方式中,参见图5所示的一种多光谱光发生单元100中,一种光束整形单元104和照明单元102的结构示意图;该光束整形单元104包括匀光器件。该匀光器件具体可以为匀光棒;匀光棒的输入端与照明单元102的发光二极管矩阵对接耦合;匀光棒 的输入端的形状与发光二极管矩阵的形状相匹配;匀光棒的输出端与光导器件103光纤束对接。
如果该匀光棒足够长,则来自各个发光二极管的光在到达匀光棒的输出端之前将在空间上被充分地占据;匀光棒的长度可以为15毫米到40毫米;匀光棒输出端部与可被布置成形成任何所需形状的多个光纤对接。该实施例中,光纤束可以设置为方形光纤束,参见图6所示的一种多光谱光发生单元100中,方形光纤束的结构示意图;该方形光纤束具有方形端部,可以提高光学系统的光耦合效率。
在其中一种方式中,该匀光棒为方形玻璃匀光棒,该匀光棒输入端的端面边长为3.4毫米,以覆盖3×3形式的照明单元102发光二极管矩阵(边长为3.3毫米);该匀光棒输出端环形直径可以是3.4毫米,以与216根光纤的半环光纤束的方形输入端匹配;该匀光棒的长度可以为20毫米;该匀光棒在数值孔径0.28的光学系统中的耦合效率为4%,并可避免产生螺旋传导模式。
在另一种方式中,上述匀光棒可以匹配9个光纤束,该匀光棒输入端的端面边长为3.6毫米,输出端宽度为3.6毫米;该情况下,9个光纤束中,每个光纤束包含12根纤芯;该匀光棒的长度可以为20毫米;该匀光棒在数值孔径0.28的光学系统中的耦合效率为1.57%,并可避免产生螺旋传导模式。
上述匀光棒可以直接连接到照明单元102发光二极管矩阵的发光表面,使得发光二极管矩阵中的任意波长的发光都可以均匀地投射到光纤中去;匀光棒是正方形截面,也可是立体呈锥形,根据棒的波导特性,输出照明。
参见图7所示的另一种多光谱光发生单元100的结构示意图;该多光谱光发生单元100包括一个或两个照明单元102、以及与照明单元102数量相对应的一个或两个所述光束整形单元104、一个或两个光导器件103;控制单元101将从中央控制器105发送的控制指令转换为控制信号,以控制一个或两个照明单元102;每个照明单元102发光二极管分别由控制单元101直接控制。在本实施例中,该多光谱光发生单元100包括第一照明单元、第二照明单元以及第一光束整形单元、第二光束整形单元、第一光导器件、第二光导器件。
多光谱光发生单元100的分布需要确保各个波长的光源都可以均匀地照亮眼底,确保在眼睛瞳孔处的进光光路横截面和出光光路横截面保持一定间距,以克服不需要的眼底后向散射带来的在图像上的干扰。通常,通过环形/弧形提供照明,而通过中央圆形区域眼底反射出光供图像采集。
在图像采集装置107中,环形照明通常是分成部分环形或者弧形,单次只会照亮部分环形,一般需要快速点亮两个部分环形照明以获取两张分开的图像,并合并成期望视场角的完整图像。这种顺序环形拍摄技术的单独图像通常存在一定面积的角膜反光,但是当把两张分开的图像合并之后,可以有效地消除角膜反光。在这种电子图像叠加中,单个半环照明获取的图像较暗的区域的像素灰度值会变成双倍。为了防止图像的任何重叠,部分环形照明的角度应该小于180度。在修补图像时,可以不出现明显的分界线,并且可以实现两个图像之间的渐变过渡。
基于此,在其中一种实施方式中,参见图8所示的另一种多光谱光发生单元100的结构示意图;光导器件103输出端为半环结构;该半环结构通过光纤排列成半环形来实现;两个光导器件103输出端的半环结构相互匹配;两个光导器件103输出端的半环结构可结合形成全环。
具体地,两个半环结构相互分隔,每个半环结构对应一个照明单元102;当控制单元101发送控制信号及控制电流至特定照明单元102上某个波长的发光二极管时,相应的发光就会经由上述匀光棒和光纤,使该半环结构发光。
通过上述两个相互分隔的半环结构,可以形成两个弧形照明区域,两个弧形照明沿同一圆周均匀分布,两个弧形照明区域被配置成照明患者眼底的相同部分,两个弧形照明区域对应的圆心角均小于180度。
每个弧形照明区域源于对应的多光谱光发生单元100中的半环结构,成像在被测眼的瞳孔上为近半圆形,从而进一步的在预定立体角(视场)内照射整个视网膜。
作为另一种实施方式,光导器件103输出端包括两组四分之一环结构;四分之一环结构被配置成将光导器件103输出端的光纤排列成弧形;两个光导器件103输出端中,四分之一环结构沿同一圆周均匀分布。四个四分之一环结构,沿同一圆周均匀分布,形成四个弧形照明区域,四个弧形照明区域被配置成照明患者眼底的相同部分,四个弧形照明区域对应的圆心角均小于90度。
四弧形照明方式,照明将由多光谱光发生单元100的两个对应的照明单元102分别提供。每个对应的光导器件103将把输出光再分两部分,同时分别提供给相对但不相邻的两个光环照明区域。
更近一步的,多光谱光发生单元100提供的四光环光束将被直接带到照明光路的输入端,每个光环为近四分之一。经照明光路从而成像在被测眼的瞳孔上。从而进一步的通过照明光路在预定立体角(视场)内照射整个视网膜。
每个照明单元102将照亮相对的两个四分之一环。在实际实现时,四个四分之一环结构由每两个交替发光,具体的,在多光谱光发生单元100的一个照明单元102(例如,负责相对的两个四分之一环结构)发出波长1的照明光后,另一个分支对应的照明单元102(例如,负责另外相对的两个四分之一环结构)接着也发出波长1的照明光,然后,第一个分支发出波长2的照明光后,第二个分支也相继发出波长2的照明光,依次进行下去;在每侧弧形照明区域照明的同时,图像采集装置107同时进行图像采集。
当然,也可以由其中一个照明单元102负责相邻的两个四分之一环结构;另一个照明单元102负责另外相邻的两个四分之一环结构。
在另一种实施方式中,参见图9所示的另一种多光谱光发生单元100的结构示意图;每个光导器件103输出端包括全环结构;全环结构被配置成将光束整形单元104的输出端的光纤排列成设定半径的全环形;两个光导器件103输出端中,其中一个全环形为外环结构,另一个全环形为内环结构;外环结构的半径大于所述内环结构的半径。
具体地,光纤通过设定的排布成内外两个全环的光纤输出端直接传向照明光路,其透镜系统可以将光线合并成完整的环形。
通过上述方式,既可以实现半环照明,四分之一环照明,也可以实现全环照明;半环照明时,发光二极管可以个包含9个波长;全环照明时,发光二极管最多可达到18个波长。参见图8所示的采用多光谱光发生单元100生成的多光谱视网膜图像;图10展示了10种光谱下的视网膜图像,每种光谱下的视网膜图像可以呈现出不同的特征。
对应于上述多光谱光发生单元100实施例,参见图11所示的一种眼底成像系统的结构示意图;所述系统包括上述实施例所述的多光谱光发生单元100;还包括中央控制器105及图像采集装置107,中央控制器105、图像采集装置107分别与控制单元101通信连接。

控制单元101被配置成将多光谱光的能量大于预设定的阈值时控制照明单元102的发光二极管关闭。
当眼底成像系统的多光谱光发生单元100包括两个照明单元102时,该控制单元101可以向两个照明单元102(例如,单元a和单元b)分别发送控制信号,二者相互独立;该 控制单元101还可以控制任一照明单元102中的每个发光二极管按照任意顺序开启或关闭;并且,单元a上的每个发光二极管可以与单元b上的任何发光二极管波长组合,并且单元a和单元b可以具有相同的波长或完全不同的波长。
