X射线激发发光断层成像（XLCT）是一种新兴的混合成像技术，该技术可同时获得目标体结构信息和功能信息。然而，窄束XLCT重建图像虽然具有高空间分辨率，但X射线利用率较低，数据采集时间过长；锥束XLCT系统提高了X射线利用率，缩短了数据采集时间，但有限的探测角度导致图像重建质量相对较低。为解决上述问题，提高X射线利用率，高效实现多角度高灵敏数据采集，提出了一种基于光子计数测量的锥束XLCT系统，并通过仿体实验对其性能进行了验证。仿体实验结果表明，6个角度锥束照射模式下重建图像的相似度系数（DICE）可达50%，系统保真度（SF）和重建浓度误差（RCE）达到0.7以上，可实现3 mg·mL^-1以上的荧光物质质量浓度差距的重建。

扩散相关光谱法(DCS)是一种新兴的无创检测组织深层血流流速变化的光学方法。开发了一种基于多时延光子相关器的多通道DCS拓扑成像系统,该系统主要包含长相干激光器、光子计数式光电倍增管和光子相关器。多时延光子相关器结构可以保证光强时间自相关曲线的高分辨率和大动态范围。结合该系统的成像特点,将基于相关扩散方程解析解的约束非线性优化算法作为模型,实现半无限空间条件下相关扩散方程解析解与实验测得的相关曲线的最佳匹配,以计算血流指数。动态仿体实验验证了该系统可以分辨液体介质的流速,且可以重建出不同流速的二维图像。

Photoacoustic imaging, which can provide the maximum intensity contrast in tissue depth imaging without ionizing radiation, will be a promising imaging trend for tumor detection. In this paper, a column diffusion fiber was employed to carry a pulsed laser for irradiating stomach directly through esophagus based on the characteristics of gastric tissue structure. A long focused ultrasonic transducer was placed outside the body to detect photoacoustic signals of gastric tissue. Phantom and in vitro experiments of submucosal gastric tumors were carried out to check the sensitivity of scanning photoacoustic tomography system, including the lateral and longitudinal resolution of the system, sensitivity of different absorption coe±cient in imaging, capability of transversal detection, and probability of longitudinal detection. The results demonstrate that our innovative technique can improve the parameters of imaging. The lateral resolution reaches 2.09 mm. Then a depth of 5.5mm with a longitudinal accuracy of 0.36mm below gastric mucosa of early gastric cancer (EGC) has been achieved. In addition, the optimal absorption coe±cient differences among absorbers of system are 3.3–3.9 times. Results indicate that our photoacoustic imaging (PAI) system, is based on a long focusing transducer, can provide a potential application for detecting submucosal EGC without obvious symptoms.
