Description

포터블 기기에 탈부착이 가능한 유방암 자가 진단 장치Breast cancer self-diagnosis device that can be attached to a portable device

본 발명은 유방암 자가 진단 장치에 관한 것으로서, 보다 구체적으로는 포터블 기기에 탈부착이 가능한 유방암 자가 진단 장치에 관한 것이다.The present invention relates to a breast cancer self-diagnostic apparatus, and more particularly, to a breast cancer self-diagnostic apparatus which can be attached and detached to a portable device.

유방암은 유방에 발생하는 선암(adenocarcinoma)으로서, 서양에서는 여성의 가장 흔한 암종으로 많은 연구가 진행되고 있으며, 한국에서도 여성의 경우 자궁경부암, 위암 다음으로 빈발하는 암이다. 이러한 유방암은 보통 40대 이상의 중년 여성에게 자주 발견되고 있는데, 이른 시기의 진단과 치료를 통해 치사율을 크게 줄일 수 있다.Breast cancer is adenocarcinoma of the breast, which is the most common carcinoma of women in the West, and many studies are being conducted. In Korea, the second most common cancer after cervical cancer and stomach cancer. These breast cancers are commonly found in middle-aged women over the age of 40. Early diagnosis and treatment can significantly reduce mortality.

하지만 유방암의 초기에는 대부분의 경우 아무런 증상이 없으며, 가장 흔히 나타나는 증상은 촉진을 통해 통증이 없는 멍울이 만져지는 것인데, 이와 같은 자가 검진은 환자의 자가 검진 숙련도와 환자의 민감도에 따라 달라질 수 있다. 따라서 유방암에 걸리지 않도록 예방에 최선을 다해야 할 뿐만 아니라 조기에 발견할 수 있도록 주기적인 진단과 검사가 권장되고 있다.In the early stages of breast cancer, however, there are no symptoms in most cases, and the most common symptom is palpation-free touch with palpation. Such self-examination may depend on the patient's self-examination skill and sensitivity. Therefore, not only should we do our best to prevent breast cancer, but periodic diagnosis and testing are recommended for early detection.

현재 유방암을 진단하는 장치로 엑스선 유방촬영장치, 초음파스캐너, 자기공명영상장치 등이 있는데, 이 중에서 유방암의 조기진단을 위해 정기 검진에서 가장 많이 쓰이는 장비는 엑스선 유방촬영장치(맘모그라피)이다.Currently, X-ray mammography apparatuses, ultrasound scanners, and magnetic resonance imaging apparatuses are used to diagnose breast cancer. Among them, X-ray mammography equipment is the most frequently used equipment for regular screening for early diagnosis of breast cancer.

이와 같은 유방암을 진단하는 장치와 관련하여, 공개특허 제10-2015-0001215호(발명의 명칭: 유방 엑스선 촬영장치 및 방법, 공개일자: 2015년 01월 06일), 등록실용신안 제20-0406517호(발명의 명칭: 유방암 예방진단장치, 등록일자: 2006년 01월 11일) 등이 개시된 바 있다.In connection with such a device for diagnosing breast cancer, Korean Patent Application Publication No. 10-2015-0001215 (name of the invention: mammography apparatus and method, publication date: January 06, 2015), Utility Model Registration No. 20-0406517 (Invention: Breast Cancer Prevention Diagnosis Device, Registration Date: January 11, 2006).

그러나 종래의 엑스선 유방촬영장치는 정상 조직과 비교하여 대조도(contrast)가 높지 않은 유방암 조직 영상을 육안으로 식별하는 방식에 따르므로, 반드시 숙련된 전문의의 진단이 필요하다. 따라서 전문의의 숙련도에 따라 정확도가 달라질 수 있고, 검사 비용이 많이 든다는 문제가 있었다.However, since the conventional X-ray mammography apparatus is based on a method of visually identifying a breast cancer tissue image having high contrast compared to normal tissue, diagnosis by a skilled medical professional is necessary. Therefore, the accuracy may vary according to the expert's skill, and there is a problem that the inspection cost is high.

촉각 센서(210)는 포터블 기기(100)의 카메라(110)를 통해 유방의 촉각 영상이 획득될 수 있도록 유방의 탄성도 분포 데이터를 수집하는 역할을 한다. 여기에서, 촉각 센서(210)를 이용하여 획득되는 촉각 영상은, 미리 정해진 압축률로 유방을 압착하고, 압착된 유방의 탄성도 분포 정보를 카메라(110)로 촬영하여 수집된 영상일 수 있다.The tactile sensor 210 collects elasticity distribution data of the breast so that the tactile image of the breast can be obtained through the camera 110 of the portable device 100. Here, the tactile image obtained by using the tactile sensor 210 may be an image collected by compressing a breast at a predetermined compression rate and capturing elasticity distribution information of the compressed breast with the camera 110.

근적외선 센서(220)는 포터블 기기(100)의 카메라(110)를 통해 유방의 근적외선 영상이 획득될 수 있도록 유방에 근적외선을 조사하는 역할을 한다. 여기에서, 근적외선 센서(220)를 이용하여 획득되는 근적외선 영상은, 헤모글로빈이 근적외선 파장을 흡수하는 성질을 이용하여 유방의 헤모글로빈 분포 정보를 카메라(111)로 촬영하여 수집된 영상일 수 있다.The near infrared sensor 220 serves to irradiate the near infrared to the breast so that the near infrared image of the breast can be obtained through the camera 110 of the portable device 100. Here, the near-infrared image acquired using the near-infrared sensor 220 may be an image collected by photographing the hemoglobin distribution information of the breast with the camera 111 by using the property of hemoglobin absorbing the near-infrared wavelength.

위치 센서(230)는 유방암 자가 진단 장치(10)가 접촉된 유방이 오른쪽 유방인지 왼쪽 유방인지를 구분하여 인식하는 역할을 한다.The position sensor 230 distinguishes and recognizes whether the breast contacted by the breast cancer self-diagnosis apparatus 10 is a right breast or a left breast.

알람 센서(240)는 유방암 자가 진단 장치(10)로 진단 시, 종양의 존재가 의심되는 부위에서, 알람 또는 진동이 울려, 사용자에게 그 부위를 좀 더 세밀하게 관찰할 수 있도록 유도하는 역할을 한다.When the alarm sensor 240 is diagnosed by the breast cancer self-diagnosis apparatus 10, an alarm or vibration sounds at a site where a tumor is suspected, thereby inducing a user to observe the site in more detail. .

전원 공급부(250)는 촉각 센서(210), 근적외선 선세(220), 위치 센서(230) 및 알람 센서(240)의 구동을 위해 전원을 공급해주는 역할을 한다. 여기에서, 실시예에 따라, 전원 공급부(250)는 소모성의 코인 건전지 형태로 설치되도록 구성될 수 있다.The power supply unit 250 serves to supply power for driving the tactile sensor 210, the near infrared predecessor 220, the position sensor 230, and the alarm sensor 240. Here, according to the embodiment, the power supply 250 may be configured to be installed in the form of consumable coin battery.

도 4는 본 발명의 일실시예에 따른 포터블 기기에 탈부착이 가능한 유방암 자가 진단 장치에서, 진단이 이루어지는 과정의 순서도를 도시한 도면이다. 도 4에 도시된 바와 같이, 본 발명의 일실시예에 따른 포터블 기기에 탈부착이 가능한 유방암 자가 진단 장치(10)로 진단을 시작하면, 위치 센서(230)에서 유방암 자가 진단 장치가 접촉된 유방이 오른쪽 유방인지 왼쪽 유방인지를 구분하여 인식하고, 실시예에 따라, 위치 인식의 오류를 최소화하기 위해 사용자가 위치를 재확인할 수 있다.FIG. 4 is a flowchart illustrating a process of making a diagnosis in a breast cancer self-diagnosis apparatus detachable to a portable device according to an embodiment of the present invention.

진단하는 유방이 오른쪽 유방인지 왼쪽 유방인지의 위치 확인이 끝난 경우, 유방암 자가 진단 장치를 통해 유방을 스캔하며 진단이 진행될 수 있다. 여기에서, 진단 시 종양의 존재가 의심되는 부위에서, 알람 센서(240)를 통해 알람 또는 진동이 울리면서, 의심되는 부위의 진단을 좀 더 세밀하게 관찰하도록 할 수 있다.When the location of the breast to be diagnosed is determined to be the right breast or the left breast, the diagnosis may proceed by scanning the breast through a breast cancer self-diagnostic apparatus. Here, at the site where the presence of the tumor is suspected at the time of diagnosis, an alarm or vibration may be generated through the alarm sensor 240, so that the diagnosis of the suspected site may be observed in more detail.

진단할 유방이 스캔되면, 카메라(110)를 통해 촉각 영상 및 근적외선 영상이 획득되고, 획득된 촉각 영상 및 근적외선 영상을 동일한 좌표에 정합시킬 수 있다. 정합된 데이터는 유방암 분석 프로그램 앱(140)을 통해, 데이터 저장부(130)에 저장되어 있는 현재 진단되는 유방 쪽의 축적된 기존 데이터와 분석되어 비교될 수 있다.When the breast to be diagnosed is scanned, a tactile image and a near infrared image may be obtained through the camera 110, and the acquired tactile image and the near infrared image may be matched to the same coordinates. The matched data may be analyzed and compared with the accumulated existing data of the currently diagnosed breast side stored in the data storage unit 130 through the breast cancer analysis program app 140.

유방암 분석 프로그램 앱(140)을 통해 분석된 데이터 결과는 디스플레이부(120)를 통해 사용자에게 알려줄 수 있고, 분석된 데이터에 이상이 있는 경우, 포터블 기기(100)의 무선 전송 시스템을 통하여 분석된 데이터를 담당 의사에게 전송하여, 좀 더 정밀한 검사를 받을 수 있도록 안내할 수 있다.The result of the data analyzed through the breast cancer analysis program app 140 may be notified to the user through the display 120, and when there is an error in the analyzed data, the data analyzed through the wireless transmission system of the portable device 100. Can be sent to your doctor for further testing.

만약, 유방암 분석 프로그램 앱(140)을 통해 분석된 데이터에 이상이 없다면, 카메라(110)를 통해 획득되는 촉각 영상 및 근적외선 영상을 정합시킨 데이터 및 정합된 데이터를 분석한 데이터는 데이터 저장부(130)에 저장되어 축적될 수 있다.If there is no abnormality in the data analyzed through the breast cancer analysis program app 140, the data of the tactile image and the near-infrared image acquired through the camera 110 and the analyzed data are the data storage 130. Can be stored and accumulated.
