Abstract
The invention discloses an external magnetic field driving system of an in-vivo micro-robot, which comprises a robot, an embedded magnetic body (1) of the robot, a processing center (2), a diagnosis and treatment manipulator (3) and an external driving device (4). The combined coil system is utilized to construct a gradient magnetic field which is uniform in spatial sense, the gradient size and direction are controlled by adjusting the loading current and the relative motion of part of the coils to a human body, and the gradient magnetic field acts on a built-in magnetic body of the robot to obtain expected spatial vector force, so that expected motion is realized. The external magnetic field driving does not depend on the friction between the micro-robot and human tissues for traveling, the uniform gradient avoids the sudden change of stress caused by the displacement of the micro-robot under the action of the magnetic field, and the provided driving system has good safety and controllability, thereby laying a foundation for further researching the gradient magnetic field to drive the lumen micro-robot.
Description
Affiliated field the present invention relates to the medical apparatus and instruments automatic field, the system that the gradient magnetic control that particularly a kind of externally built-up coil produces drives intracoelomic cavity pipe Micro-Robot down.
Technical background is along with the development of MEMS technology, and people wish to utilize Micro-Robot to enter human body to carry out noinvasive or Wicresoft's diagnosis and treatment.Wired system is more suitable for nearly table of body or short stroke occasion because lead leads and disturbs.For ease of particularly gastral traversal inspection of intracoelomic cavity pipe and operation, people study wireless mode.The wireless capsule scope is the digestive tract examining equipment that developed recently gets up, its basic feature is the digestive tract image that wireless transmission is taken with the little photographic head of capsule, and its representative products is the M2A and the breadboard Norika series of Japanese RF System of Israel Given Imaging company.
With the wireless capsule scope is that platform is set up micro Manipulator System in the body, can realize that digestive tract environment such as temperature, pH value detect, but dispenser, sampling, and adding behind the micromanipulator can be voluntarily or auxiliaryly finish particular procedure, and very vast potential for future development is arranged.
These capsule endoscope products all utilize digestive tract to wriggle naturally and travel through whole inspection area at present, and expectation is finally discharged with Excreta.But gastral peristalsis is very limited to the progradation of capsule endoscope, and whole checking process is slow and uncontrollable, and for example the review time of M2A reaches 8 hours, and loss is also quite high, can incarceration take place in addition and is detained human body.These deficiencies have restricted the scope of application, treatment effect and the function expansion of capsule endoscope, therefore are necessary the drive environment in conjunction with robot, add to drive control safely and effectively on existing basis.
Move the active traversal that driving realizes Micro-Robot in the body, its quantity of motion is big, energy consumption is high, thereby is different from the microoperation driving that realizes functions such as operation.Microoperation can drive functional material by the integrated exciting bank of body, perhaps utilizes the integrated electromagnetic driving system of body to realize.Because the tortuous complexity of digestive tract, surperficial stick-slip, many grooves and pleat, therefore not ideal for the multiple macroscopic view that realizes traveling through in the body, complexity and heavy motion with upper type.The huge consumption that move to drive makes proper year energy or wireless energy supply can't satisfy Micro-Robot and finishes other functions, as takes pictures or make a video recording, driving, image transmission and even dispenser, gets the total energy demand of biopsy, operation etc.Therefore be necessary to seek the external drive mode to reduce the body energy consumption.
Directly utilize outer field excitation can effectively reduce Micro-Robot body energy consumption.The Micro-Robot that people such as the Toshio Fukuda of Japan Nagoya university make utilizes the magnetostriction alloy mechanism under the external magnetic field driving to realize creeping in the microchannel.But the outfield exiting form is single, relies on the material deformation due to the outfield to be difficult to finish multiple action request merely.
External magnetic field is strong and two kinds of effects of torque to magnetic bodies, and it is in fact more simple and effective to utilize this direct magnetic force or torque to drive, and has significantly reduced Micro-Robot body energy consumption.In addition, the microoperation of robot can separate and the influence of a driving magnetic field outside not being subjected to mobile the driving as sampling, spray medicine, lens focus adjusting etc.
People such as the M.Sendoh of northeastern Japan university propose to utilize similar three Helmholtz coils that space rotating magnetic field is provided, and the control loading current acts on the embedded magnet of capsule to adjust magnitude of field intensity and direction, precession under capsule surface spiral lamination promotes.The Norika3 capsule can axially rotate, and its built-in electromagnetic coil provides rotating excitation field by overcoat that the person under inspection wears.But its Rotation Design is in order to increase the visual field to reduce omission, because the outfield direction of rotation is single and inhomogeneous, to drive poor effect when being converted to precession.
In fact precession mode has certain defective: spiral lamination makes swallows, discharges inconvenience and may cause damage when peristalsis of the digest tract; Digestive tract mostly is long tube-like thin-wall, many grooves, pleat, and precession may make digestive tract partly reverse to cause pain or damage; Each section of digestive tract diameter differs, and is also different with the capsule contact condition, and digestive tract content residue may be clogged thread pitch simultaneously, therefore is difficult to guarantee the efficient of precession.
Therefore we propose directly to utilize the outfield magnetically-actuated.The mobile driving that utilizes main body mechanism to carry out mostly, as creeping motion type, wheeled, crawler type, impact type, screw type etc., must rely on and subject between friction advance.Wish to reduce this friction when utilizing direct magnetic force, this is consistent with the security consideration that drives.Need not the integrated actuating mechanism of body and make that also the robot architecture obtains simplifying.Adopt medicine to suppress the part peristalsis of the digest tract when digestive tract examining and operation, and guarantee that Micro-Robot contact surface good lubrication will help driving.Driving should avoid causing tissue injurys such as mucosa as far as possible; Owing to have various disturbances such as peristalsis of the digest tract, sneeze, cough, have the hiccups etc., the person under inspection also can move naturally as slightly moving Micro-Robot opposing disturbance better performances when this requires the outfield to drive in addition.
The gradient of general externally-applied magnetic field sharply changes with operating distance, and the micro-displacement of robot also may cause stressed sudden change, makes location, control and security performance worsen, even " sneeze is decreased the ring intestinal wall ".The torque in magnetic field is very important in addition, and the big twisting resistance that is subjected in the driving process is a potential danger.
The gradient tensor of the suffered magnetic force of robot and externally-applied magnetic field and the intensity of magnetization of embedded magnetic are relevant, suffered magnetic torque relevant with the intensity of magnetization of field intensity and embedded magnet (formula 1).If embedded magnetic permanent magnet, then the intensity of magnetization can be considered constant, at this moment can rely on the suitable external magnetic field environment of structure to drive fully.
The driving of robot promptly will be constructed suitable space magnetic field and be distributed, and utilizes built-up coil can obtain uniform magnetic field intensity or uniform magnetic field gradient.The simplest shim coil is a Helmholtz coil, and it is that a pair of radius is R, at a distance of L=R and collude electric current loop to electric current, can form axial magnetic field very uniformly, and its radial component can be ignored.The simplest gradient coil is that Maxwell is right, and its radius is R, apart
Logical reverse current, can form the center field intensity is zero uniform gradient, and axial gradient is about radial twice.Nonaxisymmetrical coil, for example the reasonable combination of square coil also can reach effect same.
The shim coil of practical application all has multiple different form and method for designing with gradient coil.For example gradient coil is similar to NMR (Nuclear Magnetic Resonance)-imaging (MRI) gradient coil, and its kind can be divided into two kinds of vertical and horizontal by the relative direction with main field.If the MRI main field be z to the field, then only need to consider to the effective g of imaging
Zb(b=x, y, z) component (formula 2).Coil distribution generally forms by the simulate ideal surface current, wherein g
ZzProduced by vertical gradient coil, it is right that the formation principle of its gradient is similar to Maxwell; g
Zx, g
ZyProduced by horizontal gradient loop, lead mostly is streamlined distribution or is made of discontinuous different electric current sections.Drive coil is formed by various forms of coil combination, and practical is cylinder coil and planar coil.The general built-up coil that adopts the cylinder form, each is organized coil and is layering, and can form comparatively compact structure.
In fact, horizontal gradient loop does not produce transverse gradients merely, and vertically gradient coil does not produce vertical gradient merely yet; Different with MRI, when the magneticaction of compute gradient coil, need omnirange to consider the contribution of each component of gradient tensor.
Owing to there is not so-called main field when driving, be the used coil of difference MRI, we press drive coil and divide with respect to the direction of human body (or saying sick bed) longitudinal axis: mainly provide the magnetic field intensity of human body (sick bed) y direction or the coil of magnetic field gradient to be called axial coil, mainly provide perpendicular to the magnetic field intensity of human body (sick bed) y direction or the coil of magnetic field gradient to be called radial coil.
Gradient coil constructs more uniform gradient fields in the certain space scope, in this scope, under the same loading current, the suffered magnetic force of magnetic Micro-Robot has nothing to do with its position basically, so just can resist bigger disturbance; By changing the loading current of gradient coil, we can obtain the gradient of different size and Orientations, affact the magnetic force that just obtains different size and Orientations in the robot.But because gradient coil changes in the field intensity direction of diverse location, institute's torque suspension can change during the robot motion, can cause the non-hope of robot to be reversed under enough big situation, and then makes the stressed change of robot.Guarantee the two kinds of schemes that do not twist when the robot location changes: one provides the space relative translation degree of freedom between coil system and the examinee, makes robot be positioned at low place all the time; The 2nd, utilize shim coil to make the skew of low place and initiatively follow robot, even directly adjust field intensity make it with the intensity of magnetization of robot embedded magnet in the same way.
The drive coil zone of action is considered as passive region, and different gradient coils can produce different Distribution of Magnetic Field, but after the contribution of the magnetic field of synthetic each gradient coil, still has big dependency between each component of magnetic field gradient tensor.Need omnirange to consider the contribution of each component of gradient tensor owing to calculate magneticaction, these components can be subdued each other to the contribution of magnetic force under a lot of situations, therefore adopt different coil combination and loading current adjustment thereof in the hope of obtaining the method poor effect of any direction magnetic force fully.We utilize the mechanism kinematic of coil and gradient coil magnetic field to obtain to advance driving force for this reason, utilize the mechanism kinematic of sick bed and the field intensity size that shim coil is adjusted the robot position jointly, thereby adjust the suffered magnetic torque of robot.Like this, under magnetic force of determining and magnetic torque effect, the motion of robot can be controlled preferably.
The present capsule endoscope of summary of the invention relies on peristalsis to advance in digestive tract fully, there is not safe and practical active wireless driving method, uncontrollability has restricted the scope of application and the result of use of capsule endoscope, make with similar wireless endoscope to be platform, the technological expansion of diagnosis and treatment Micro-Robot can't realize in multi-functional body.
The objective of the invention is to design a kind of Micro-Robot external magnetic field drive system that intracoelomic cavity pipe traversal is checked that can be used for, utilize the magnetic field environment that built-up coil structure gradient is even, the spatial point field intensity is adjustable, and adjust magnetic field by the corresponding sports that changes coil loading current and coil and sick bed, act on the embedded magnet of Micro-Robot to reach the purpose of Micro-Robot in the control volume externally, realize that for final the wireless controlled diagnosis and treatment of Micro-Robot lay the foundation in the body.
