摘要

红外热像仪为医生诊断和治疗患者提供了宝贵的辅助信息，并与艾灸疗法有效结合，提高了治疗的准确性和效率。然而，当基于红外热成像信息进行艾灸时，医生需要第二次重新安置患者。针对这一问题，本文提出了一种基于人体红外热成像的艾灸机器人定位系统。根据红外热成像治疗方案，设计了一种艾灸机器人，实现艾灸操作的自动化。提出了一种新的人体红外热像图与可见光图像的跨模态图像定位匹配方法，利用人体关键点检测算法和空间变换算法，将患者红外热像图上待治疗点映射到患者可见光图像上，并与艾灸机器人集成，实现艾灸自动化治疗。通过构建人体红外热成像数据集，对该系统进行了验证和测试。3名志愿者参与重复性定位实验，选取每位志愿者背部的5个穴位作为治疗点。实验结果表明，不同个体不同穴位定位的平均误差为8.32 mm，满足艾灸治疗的需求。

A moxibustion robot positioning system based on human infrared thermography

Infrared thermography provides valuable auxiliary information that aids doctors in diagnosing and treating patients, and its effective integration with moxibustion therapy can enhance both the accuracy and efficiency of treatment. However, when moxibustion is administered based on infrared thermography information, the physician is required to relocate the patient for a second time. To address this issue, this paper proposes a moxibustion robot positioning system based on human infrared thermography. A moxibustion robot is designed to realize automated moxibustion operation based on the treatment plan of infrared thermography. A novel cross-modal image localization matching method for human infrared thermography and visible light images is also proposed, which uses a human keypoint detection algorithm and a spatial transformation algorithm to map the to-be-treated points on the infrared thermography of the patient to the visible light image of the patient, and Integrates with the moxibustion robot to realize automated moxibustion treatment. The system was validated and tested by constructing a human infrared thermography dataset. Three volunteers were participated in the repetitive localization experiment, and five acupoints on the back of each volunteer were selected as the points to be treated. The experimental results showed that the average error of localization of different acupoints for different individuals was 8.32 mm, which meets the demand of moxibustion treatment.

期刊介绍： The Journal covers the entire field of infrared physics and technology: theory, experiment, application, devices and instrumentation. Infrared'' is defined as covering the near, mid and far infrared (terahertz) regions from 0.75um (750nm) to 1mm (300GHz.) Submissions in the 300GHz to 100GHz region may be accepted at the editors discretion if their content is relevant to shorter wavelengths. Submissions must be primarily concerned with and directly relevant to this spectral region. Its core topics can be summarized as the generation, propagation and detection, of infrared radiation; the associated optics, materials and devices; and its use in all fields of science, industry, engineering and medicine. Infrared techniques occur in many different fields, notably spectroscopy and interferometry; material characterization and processing; atmospheric physics, astronomy and space research. Scientific aspects include lasers, quantum optics, quantum electronics, image processing and semiconductor physics. Some important applications are medical diagnostics and treatment, industrial inspection and environmental monitoring.
