技术领域
本申请涉及医疗诊断及检测装置,更具体地,涉及用于评估肝脏病变状况的计算装置、肝脏弹性测量装置、远程工作站和介质。
背景技术
肝脏疾病在世界范围内已经成为影响人类健康的重要原因。各种肝病的发展过程会伴随肝脏的纤维化,而肝脏的纤维化也会伴随肝脏的弹性变化。近期对瞬时弹性成像技术在肝脏纤维化的诊断上进行了大量研究。通常利用瞬时弹性成像技术来测量肝脏硬度值(Liver Stiffness Measurement,英文缩写为LSM),并据此诊断肝脏的纤维化程度。
但是,对于各种肝病,如果仅仅获知肝脏硬度值,并不能让医生及时且准确地诊断肝脏的当前病变状况及潜在发展的可能。有时候,偏高的纤维化程度也无需过度用药,患者的病程发展是稳定甚至停滞的;反而一些纤维化程度不高的肝脏,如果不引起重视而没有及时复查,会迅速发展恶化。目前医生还是经常依赖于临床病理检测进行肝脏活检来诊断肝脏病变状况。但是,肝脏活检具有许多限制因素,其侵入性的缺点、并发症风险使得无法持续进行俩跟踪肝脏验证,此外,肝脏活检还受到抽样误差的影响。因此,无创肝脏病变评估方式依然存在改进空间。

具体实施方式
为使本领域技术人员更好的理解本申请的技术方案,下面结合附图和具体实施方式对本申请作详细说明。下面结合附图和具体实施例对本申请的实施例作进一步详细描述,但不作为对本申请的限定。
本申请中使用的“第一”、“第二”以及类似的词语并不表示任何顺序、数量或者重要性,而只是用来区分不同的部分。“包括”或者“包含”等类似的词语意指在该词前的要素涵盖在该词后列举的要素,并不排除也涵盖其他要素的可能。“上”、“下”、“左”、“右”等仅用于表示相对位置关系,当被描述对象的绝对位置改变后,则该相对位置关系也可能相应地改变。
图1示出了根据本申请实施例的用于评估肝脏病变状况的计算装置100a的示意图。请注意,该计算装置100a可以内置于根据本申请实施例的肝脏弹性测量装置100中,如图1中所例示的,但也可以设置于其他位置,例如但不限于远程工作站、云端服务器等中。所述计算装置100a除了可以配置在所述肝脏弹性测量装置100中,也可以与所述肝脏弹性测量装置100可通信地连接,只要能够获取到肝脏弹性测量装置100对受检者所采集的超声数据就可以。
下面以内置于肝脏弹性测量装置100的计算装置100a为例进行说明。
如图1所示,该计算装置100a可以包括第一处理器103,所述第一处理器103被配置为:基于肝脏弹性测量装置100对受检者所采集的超声数据,确定包括肝脏弹性测量值的肝脏纤维化参数、包括超声衰减测量值的肝脏脂肪变性参数以及包括肝脏炎症指数的肝脏炎症参数。肝脏弹性测量值可以采用各种表征肝脏弹性的参数,例如但不限于肝脏硬度测量值(英文缩写通常为LSM)。在一些实施例中,肝脏纤维化参数也可以包括肝脏粘性参数,协同分析肝脏弹性 参数和粘性参数能够更全面地评估肝脏的纤维化程度。肝脏的脂肪变性是脂肪在肝脏中的积累,可以利用超声波传播衰减的测量结果(超声衰减测量值通常缩写为UAP)来量化脂肪变性。肝脏炎症参数包括各种表征炎症活动度的参数。在一些实施例中,可以根据预先设定的肝脏硬度或者反映肝脏硬度的参量及肝脏炎症活动度的对应关系,获得肝脏炎症活动度或组织炎症活动度相关信息,作为所述肝脏炎症指数。该肝脏炎症指数通常缩写为LID或者RFIn等。例如,所述对应关系可以包括:肝脏硬度LSM为6.1-8.7kpa时,对应组织炎症活动度为轻度组炎症坏死;LSM为8.7-13.2kpa时,对应组织炎症活动度为中度组织炎症坏死;LSM值为13.2kpa以上时,对应组织炎症活动度为重度组织炎症坏死。在一些实施例中,所述对应关系还包括:不同病因所对应的组织硬度或者反映组织硬度的参量及组织炎症活动度,针对病毒性肝炎、自身免疫性肝炎、原发性胆汁性胆管炎、非酒精脂肪肝以及药物性肝病及病因不明的肝病,分别预先设置LSM及肝脏炎症活动度的对应关系。
所述第一处理器103可以被进一步配置为:在显示器105上显示所述肝脏纤维化参数、所述肝脏脂肪变性参数以及所述肝脏炎症参数中的一个或者多个,使得用户能够查看所述肝脏纤维化参数、所述肝脏脂肪变性参数连同所述肝脏炎症参数。请注意,未必这三个参数都要同一时刻呈现在显示器105上,先后呈现也可以,响应于用户的操作而呈现也可以,用户只要需要,能够查看到其中的任何一个参数,尤其是肝脏炎症参数。如此,用户能够对照参考这三种参数(或者对照参考其中的部分参数),更灵敏且准确地诊断出肝脏的多变复杂的病变状况。例如说来,在肝脏纤维化参数较高但肝脏炎症参数很低的情况下,医生就可以准确判定肝脏病变处于稳定期,不会迅速发展,用药量可以酌情控制。又例如,在肝脏纤维化参数不高,但是肝脏炎症参数显著高的情况下,医生可以评估肝脏虽然还属于可代偿阶段,但可能会发生快速纤维化,如果同时看到肝脏脂肪变性参数也不佳,那么就要引起足够警惕并及时进行医学干预,而且需要受检者以较短的间隔定期检查来监控医学干预的效果,并调整用药等等。
在一些实施例中,所述超声数据可以由肝脏弹性测量装置100对受检者同次采集而得到。也就是说,第一处理器103可以对受检者同个时段的超声数据进行迅速分析,来得出受检者同个时段的所述肝脏纤维化参数、所述肝脏脂肪变性参数以及所述肝脏炎症参数。例如,甚至可以在对受检者进行肝脏弹性检测之后,即时呈现该时段的所述肝脏纤维化参数、所述肝脏脂肪变性参数以及所述肝脏炎症参数,可以让医生更方便及时地关注到这三个参数的关联和协同作用,从而更准确地评估肝脏的病变状况。
在一些实施例中,所述第一处理器103可以被进一步配置为:根据所述肝脏纤维化参数,计算肝脏纤维化评分;根据所述肝脏脂肪变性参数,计算肝脏脂肪变性评分;根据所述肝脏炎症参数,计算肝脏炎症评分;在显示器105上一并显示所述肝脏纤维化评分、所述肝脏脂肪变性评分以及所述肝脏炎症评分,如图3所示。可以基于预先测量的包括各个参数与医生手动标注的评分的地面真值作为训练数据,来建立各个参数与评分之间的对应关系。该对应关系可以建立为数学模型,也可以利用学习网络来实现。在一些实施例中,可以基于预先测量的一组上述三类参数(肝脏纤维化参数、肝脏脂肪变性参数和肝脏炎症参数)与医生手动标注的三类评分(肝脏纤维化评分、肝脏脂肪变性评分和肝脏炎症评分)作为训练数据,来构建评分预测模型,如此,该评分预测模型考虑到了三种参数之间的交互影响,能够更准确地预测出各个层面的评分。具体说来,所述肝脏纤维化评分、所述肝脏脂肪变性评分以及所述肝脏炎症评分为连续的数值,或者离散的等级。通过显示所述肝脏纤维化评分、所述肝脏脂肪变性评分以及所述肝脏炎症评分,可以帮助医生(尤其是专业技能一般的医生)更直观地理解肝脏病变的纤维化、脂肪变性和炎症活性三个层面的发展状况,从而更准确地评估肝脏的病变状况。
可以让用户自由地选择查看参数还是评分,对于专业技能较高的医生,可能更希望获取原始的参数值以进行更精细的分析,而对于专业技能一般的医生,可能会依赖于评分来进行更可靠的分析。相应地,所述第一处理器103可以被进一步配置为:接收用户的选择查看参数或评分的操作。在用户选择查看参数的情况下,第一处理器103可以在显示器105上一并显示所述肝脏纤维化参数、所述肝脏脂肪变性参数以及所述肝脏炎症参数,如图2所示。而在用户选择查看评分(如图3勾选了“显示评分”)的情况下,第一处理器103可以在显示器105上一并显示所述肝脏纤维化评分40、所述肝脏脂肪变性评分60以及所述肝脏炎症评分70。图3所示的三个层面的评分就表征了纤维化程度不高但炎症活性水平很高,会发生快速纤维化而病变的状况。
如上所述,计算装置100a可以配置在肝脏弹性测量装置100,也可以配置为远程工作站。
回到图1,对肝脏弹性测量装置100进行例示性说明。该肝脏弹性测量装置100可以包括超声换能器101,其被配置为在振动激励产生剪切波的情况下向受检者发射和接收超声波;发射/接收控制电路102,其被配置为向所述超声换能器输出发射和接收序列,以控制其发射和接收超声波;以及根据本申请各个实施例的计算装置100a,其经由第一处理器103来实现。也就是说,计算装置100a复用了肝脏弹性测量装置自身的第一处理器103。肝脏弹性测量装置 100可以包括存储器104和显示器105,其中,存储器104可以被配置为存储超声数据,也可以存储或加载根据本申请各个实施例的肝脏病变状况的评估方法,也可以存储在实施该评估方法时产生的中间数据等等。
在一些实施例中,第一处理器103可以是包括一个以上通用处理设备的处理设备,诸如微处理器、中央处理单元(CPU)、图形处理单元(GPU)等。存储器104可以是非暂时性计算机可读的介质,诸如只读存储器(ROM)、随机存取存储器(RAM)、相变随机存取存储器(PRAM)、静态随机存取存储器(SRAM)、动态随机存取存储器(DRAM)、电可擦除可编程只读存储器(EEPROM)、其他类型的随机存取存储器(RAM)、闪存盘或其他形式的闪存、缓存、寄存器、静态存储器、光盘只读存储器(CD-ROM)、数字通用光盘(DVD)或其他光学存储器、盒式磁带或其他磁存储设备,或被用于储存能够被计算机设备访问的信息或指令的任何其他可能的非暂时性的介质等。
在一些实施例中,显示器105可以包括液晶显示器(LCD)、发光二极管显示器(LED)、等离子显示器或任何其他类型的显示器,并提供显示器上呈现的图形用户界面(GUI),如图2和图3所示。显示器105可以包括许多不同类型的材料(诸如塑料或玻璃),并且可以是触敏的以从用户接收命令。例如,显示器105可以包括基本上刚性的触敏材料(诸如Gorilla玻璃TM)或基本上柔韧的(诸如Willow玻璃TM)的触敏材料。
如图1所示,肝脏弹性测量装置100中可以包括剪切波发生装置106,从而在进行外部振动激励或声辐射力激励的情况下进行超声数据的采集。例如,所述外部振动激励的频率范围为10-1000Hz,振动幅度范围为0.001-10mm,振动周期数为0.5-1000个。又例如,所述声辐射力激励的频率范围为0.5-50Mhz,激励脉冲长度大于10μs,且激励位置有一个以上。
在一些实施例中,肝脏弹性测量装置100也可以不依赖于专门的剪切波发生装置106来引发剪切波,而是在进行内源性振动激励的情况下采集超声数据,所述内源性振动激励包括所述受检者的心跳或者所述受检者的发声。如此,可以使得肝脏弹性测量装置100的结构更紧凑。
在采用内源性振动激励的情况下,所述肝脏弹性测量装置100的超声信号具有大于100Hz的帧频,从而以充足的分辨率捕捉剪切波。
在采用内源性振动激励的情况下,所述第一处理器103或者所述肝脏弹性测量装置100可以进一步配置为:对所采集的超声数据进行滤波,滤波范围为20-2000Hz,再对滤波后的超声数据进行秩数大于3的主成分分析,主成分分析后所得的数据再用于确定所述肝脏纤维化参数、所述肝脏脂肪变性参数以及所述肝脏炎症参数。从而能够充分过滤掉内源性振动激励的背景噪声,并降低数 据处理量,同时准确地确定所述肝脏纤维化参数、所述肝脏脂肪变性参数以及所述肝脏炎症参数。
如图4所示,如果所述计算装置100a被配置在远程工作站400,所述第一处理器103可以经由网络401获取更丰富的受检者的信息。例如,第一处理器103可以获取所述受检者的生物学参数,所述生物学参数包括所述受检者的体重、身高、腰围、臀围、胸围、年龄、性别、BMI、皮下组织厚度和皮下脂肪厚度中的至少一种。这些生物学参数可以通过医生面诊受检者时询问或者在进行基础的体检时获取,并经由网络401传输给远程工作站400。如此,在基于所述肝脏纤维化参数、所述肝脏脂肪变性参数以及所述肝脏炎症参数的同时,第一处理器103可以辅以考虑到所述生物学参数,来计算所述受检者的肝脏病变综合得分,所述肝脏病变综合得分为连续的数值或者离散的等级。所述生物学参数在一定程度上也会影响所述肝脏病变综合得分,且短期内波动性较小,但独立考虑则特异性不够,作为辅助因素考虑,能够更准确地计算所述受检者的肝脏病变综合得分。
在一些实施例中,来自检验科的生化参数可以通过网络401传输给远程工作站400。进一步地,各种与肝脏病变状况相关的各种科室的检测数据都可以传输给远程工作站400以进行汇总分析。相应地,所述第一处理器103可以被进一步配置为:获取所述受检者的生化参数,所述生化参数包括所述受检者的AST、ALT、转氨酶、GGT、PAL、铁血清、铁蛋白、输铁蛋白饱和度、脂酸氧化激素、细胞***素、胆固醇HDL、血糖、胰岛素血、胆红素、a2巨球蛋白、亲血色球蛋白、载脂蛋白A1、CK-18、甘油三酯、高密度脂蛋白、低密度脂蛋白、极低密度脂蛋白、脂联素、尿素、多态性基因、CRP、瘦体素和代谢生化参数的至少一种的水平;基于所述肝脏纤维化参数、所述肝脏脂肪变性参数以及所述肝脏炎症参数,辅以考虑到所述生化参数,来计算所述受检者的肝脏病变综合得分,所述肝脏病变综合得分为连续的数值或者离散的等级。这些生化参数可能会随着受检者的食物结构和检测时间而波动,导致特异性不足,但作为辅助因素考虑,能够更准确地计算所述受检者的肝脏病变综合得分。例如,ALT与AST主要分布在肝细胞内,ALT和AST升高,说明肝细胞受损。ALT最为敏感。血清中的ALT增加1倍表明1%肝细胞坏死。通常情况下ALT和AST升高程度与肝细胞受损程度相一致。ALT主要分布在肝细胞浆,ALT升高反映了肝细胞膜的损伤,AST主要分布在肝细胞浆和肝细胞线粒体。因此不同的肝脏炎症所出现的ALT、AST升高情况是不同的,ALT与AST的比值也是不同的。以ALT为例。ALT正常值受年龄,性别等多种因素的影响,同时不同个体间,ALT的基线水平相差较大。在实际应用中,ALT并不能够完全准 确的反映肝脏的“炎症细胞的浸润”,有相当一部分患者通过肝活检发现有中度乃至重度的肝脏“炎症细胞的浸润”,但其ALT仍处于正常水平,即小于等于40U/L。因此,仅仅ALT正常并不能打消对于肝脏病变的警惕,而需要结合其他参数。而当ALT异常时,在肝脏炎症参数在正常与不正常的交界范围时,就可以确定肝脏炎症存在,可以配合肝脏纤维化参数和肝脏脂肪变性参数来进行更准确的评估。
图5示出了根据本申请实施例的远程工作站的构造框图。如图5所示,该远程工作站400包括接口501、第二处理器502以及显示器503,且以可通信方式连接到根据本申请各个实施例的计算装置。接口501可以包括网络适配器、电缆连接器、串行连接器,USB连接器、并行连接器、高速数据传输适配器(诸如光纤、USB 3.0、雷电接口等)、无线网络适配器(诸如WiFi适配器)、电信(3G、4G/LTE、5G等)适配器等。第二处理器502和显示器503可以采用与图1中所示的第一处理器103和显示器105分别相似的硬件配置,在此不赘述。
所述接口501可以被配置为:接收所述计算装置所确定的包括肝脏弹性测量值的肝脏纤维化参数、包括超声衰减测量值的肝脏脂肪变性参数以及包括肝脏炎症指数的肝脏炎症参数;接收所述受检者的生物学参数或生化参数。第二处理器502可以被配置为:根据所接收的所述受检者的所述肝脏纤维化参数、所述肝脏脂肪变性参数以及所述肝脏炎症参数,辅以考虑到所述生物学参数或生化参数,来计算所述受检者的肝脏病变综合得分,所述肝脏病变综合得分为连续的数值或者离散的等级;使得显示器503显示所述受检者的肝脏病变综合得分。
在一些实施例中,所述受检者的生物学参数包括所述受检者的体重、身高、腰围、臀围、胸围、年龄、性别、BMI、皮下组织厚度和皮下脂肪厚度中的至少一种。在一些实施例中,所述受检者的生化参数包括所述受检者的AST、ALT、转氨酶、GGT、PAL、铁血清、铁蛋白、输铁蛋白饱和度、脂酸氧化激素、细胞***素、胆固醇HDL、血糖、胰岛素血、胆红素、a2巨球蛋白、亲血色球蛋白、载脂蛋白A1、CK-18、甘油三酯、高密度脂蛋白、低密度脂蛋白、极低密度脂蛋白、脂联素、尿素、多态性基因、CRP、瘦体素和代谢生化参数的至少一种的水平。
这些生物学参数和生化参数在传输给远程工作站400的时候可以携带测量时间,可以使得所述受检者的生物学参数和生化参数的测量时间与所述超声数据的采集时间相距不超过时间阈值。如此,可以确保这些生物学参数、生化参数和超声数据(以及由其计算的肝脏纤维化参数、所述肝脏脂肪变性参数以及所 述肝脏炎症参数乃至得分),可以表征在同个时段的受检者的各个层面的反映肝脏病变状况的医学信息,由此可以有助于医生更准确地评估肝脏病变的状况。
在一些实施例中,本申请还提供一种非易失性计算机存储介质,其上存储有计算机指令,所述计算机指令由第三处理器执行时,实现肝脏病变状况的评估方法。
图6示出了根据本申请实施例的肝脏病变状况的评估方法的流程图。如图6所示,该评估方法可以包括步骤601:基于肝脏弹性测量装置对受检者所采集的超声数据,确定包括肝脏弹性测量值(也可以还包括肝脏粘性参数)的肝脏纤维化参数、包括超声衰减测量值的肝脏脂肪变性参数以及包括肝脏炎症指数的肝脏炎症参数。该评估方法可以包括步骤602:在显示器上显示所述肝脏纤维化参数、所述肝脏脂肪变性参数以及所述肝脏炎症参数中的一个或者多个,使得用户能够查看所述肝脏纤维化参数、所述肝脏脂肪变性参数以及所述肝脏炎症参数。

在一些实施例中,所述评估方法还可以包括:获取所述受检者的生化参数,所述生化参数包括所述受检者的AST、ALT、转氨酶、GGT、PAL、铁血清、铁蛋白、输铁蛋白饱和度、脂酸氧化激素、细胞***素、胆固醇HDL、血糖、胰岛素血、胆红素、a2巨球蛋白、亲血色球蛋白、载脂蛋白A1、CK-18、 甘油三酯、高密度脂蛋白、低密度脂蛋白、极低密度脂蛋白、脂联素、尿素、多态性基因、CRP、瘦体素和代谢生化参数的至少一种的水平;基于所述肝脏纤维化参数、所述肝脏脂肪变性参数以及所述肝脏炎症参数,辅以考虑到所述生化参数,来计算所述受检者的肝脏病变综合得分,所述肝脏病变综合得分为连续的数值或者离散的等级。
