Design of ultrasound biomicroscopy based on modularization / 医疗卫生装备

ABSTRACT

Objective To design a modularization-based ultrasound biomicroscopy to solve the problems of the existing ultra-sound biomicroscopy in large size,display terminal and scanning probe manipulation inflexibility.Methods The modulariza-tion-based ultrasound biomicroscopy was composed of an acquisition module and an upper computer module.The acquisition module was made up of a scanning probe module,a host module and a power adapter module,in which the scan-ning probe module adopted a small-angle sector scanning scheme and consisted of an ultrasonic transducer,a preamplification circuit and a motor drive device,the host module included a field programmable gate array(FPGA)control unit,an ultrasonic emission circuit,a motor drive circuit,a gain adjustment circuit,a postamplification circuit and a USB communication interface.The upper computer module was compatible with Android and Windows platforms,which had the program developed with Java language and Eclipse(V4.5)platform for Android platform and Microsoft Visual Studio 2015 and MFC platform for Windows platform.Results The ultrasound biomicroscopy developed had the lateral and axial resolutions reaching 50 μm and could display skin and eye images clearly.Conclusion The ultrasound biomicroscopy developed behaves well in performance,portability and manipulation inflexibility,and thus can be used for clinical high-definition image acquisition.[Chinese Medical Equipment Journal,2023,44(9)19-23]
