Title:
DEPTH-SURFACE IMAGING DEVICE FOR REGISTERING ULTRASOUND IMAGES TO EACH OTHER AND TO SURFACE IMAGES BY USING SURFACE INFORMATION
Document Type and Number:
WIPO Patent Application WO/2022/243714
Kind Code:
A1
Abstract:
The present invention relates to a depth-surface imaging device, comprising a multimodal imaging unit, which contains an in-depth imaging transceiver unit, especially an ultrasound transceiving transducer unit or an OCT transceiver unit, which is optionally movable; a beam separator mirror; an intermediary media that allows pulses to propagate between the depth imaging transducer unit and the tissue object to be inspected in both directions without distortion, and which allows propagation of the optical beams between the tissue object to be inspected and the camera; and a cover, hermetically enclosing the previously mentioned elements. The depth-surface imaging device also comprises an optical camera sensor outside of the cover; an optical module mounted to the optical camera sensor; an input device for controlling the depth-surface imaging device, a data transmission device, with which the data can be transmitted to an information technology display device, where they are displayed, and the images obtained can be further processed and used; and a display unit, where the images can be projected and analysed. By combined registration of the surface and depth 2D images captured using the depth-surface imaging device, the 2D images can be aligned to each other; thus, a high precision, distortion free 3D image of the tissue object to be inspected may be created eventually.
