| 1 | Optical coherence elastography of 3D bilayer soft solids using full-field and partial displacement measurements显示文摘Characterizing nonhomogeneous elastic property distribution of soft tissues plays a crucial role in disease diagnosis and treatment.In this paper,we will apply the optical coherence elastography to reconstruct the shear modulus elastic property distribution of a bilayer solid.In the computational aspect,we adopt a well-established inverse technique that solves for every nodal shear modulus in the problem domain(NO method).Additionally,we also propose a novel inverse method that assumes the shear moduli merely vary along the thickness of the bilayer solid(TO method).The inversion tests using simulated data demonstrate that TO method performs better in reconstructing the shear modulus distribution.Further,we utilize the experimental data obtained from the optical coherence tomography to reconstruct the shear modulus distribution of a bilayer phantom.We observe that the quality of the reconstructed shear modulus distribution obtained by the partial displacement measurement is better than that obtained by the full-field displacement measurement.Particularly,merely using the displacement component along the loading direction significantly improves the reconstructed results.This work is of great significance in applying optical coherence elastography(OCE)to characterize the elastic property distribution of layered soft tissues such as skins and corneas. | Dongmei Zhao Haosen Wang Jianwei Deng Iryna Slavashevich Xu Guo Yue Mei Cuiru Sun | 2022 | Medicine in Novel Technology and Devices2022，，3： | 0 |
| 2 | Vascular Stress Analysis Based on in vivo Intravascular Optical Coherence Tomography Image Segmentation显示文摘Identification of carotid artery atherosclerosis is crucial for the diagnosis of the cerebral apoplexy and other vascular diseases.Intravascular optical tomography(IVOCT)has been employed to clinical coronary imaging for several years.Vessel morphological information on IVOCT images together with blood flow information on Doppler OCT(DOCT)images could provide a more accurate internal environment of arteries.Images integrated with fluid-structure interaction(FSI)could obtain the accurate mechanical responses and the quantitative material characters.A porcine carotid artery was imaged with an intravascular system(C7-XR,St.Jude Medical Inc.St.Paul,Minnesota,USA)in vivo,during which 120 images of one section and 600 images of a 5 mm/s pull back were captured within 6 s.Those images were then overlapped with Doppler phase changes to imply the changes in flow profiles.Segmentation and quantification of vessel structure was done in the software(MATLAB 2014b),including specifically the segmentation of lumen,imaging catheter,vessel wall and the guide wire.Appropriate interpolation functions are selected in the coordinate transformation algorithm to have smooth boundaries from images.A set of flow algorithms include image segmentation,three-dimensional/two-dimensional model reconstruction,inversion of material parameters,fitting of experimental velocity data and theoretical derivation based on simulation results is proposed.All steps are programmed to provide a theoretical basis for the future simplified process control.3D-reconstruction FSI model was built in SOLIDWORKS by lofting operation based on the segmentation results.Commercial finite element software(COMSOL 5.3,Sweden)numerically analyzed the entity model to obtain vessel stress/strain and flow shear stress data.Boundary conditions are from the OCT detection.Material of the artery was set to be the modified Mooney-Rivlin constitutive model and the parameters used were adjusted in an algorithm to match an ex vivo experiment.Wall shear stresses(WSS)and vessel deformations were chosen to measure the conditions of the artery and would serve as a target variables for future prediction.Thus,the geometric information together with the data of materials and other mechanical properties are possible to obtain during the imaging process.Segmentation process provided anatomically correct models of a two-layered artery.Numerical simulation permits reliable stress distribution in which the position of catheter and the artery curvature have a neglectable disturbance.Shear stress of the fluid is quite small compared with that of the wall at the same interface,which shows good agreement with the former studies.Moreover,a high flushing speed of 0.1 mps have little impact on the stress distributions and magnitudes,which denotes that the OCT imaging process brings little harm to the vessel.It is the first attempt to combine the OCT imaging and Doppler OCT within a full algorithm and a structural analysis.This study is helpful for the biomechanical property studies of carotid arteries and the development of medical imaging technology. | Junjie Jia Cuiru Sun | 2019 | 医用生物力学2019，34，A01： | 0 |
