乳腺增生病患者舌面与增生组织体表红外辐射强度相关性分析

Correlation analysis of infrared radiant intensity between hyperplastic breast tissue and tongue surface in patients with hyperplasia of mammary glands

目的:通过对患者乳腺增生组织体表红外辐射强度与舌面红外辐射强度相关性的分析研究,建立乳腺增生病中医舌诊红外辐射强度辅助诊断指标。方法:采用上海技术物理研究所研制的PHE-201型体表红外光谱仪分别检测20例肝郁痰凝型和16例冲任失调型乳腺增生病患者乳腺增生组织体表及舌面红外辐射强度。采用直线相关检验方法分析患者乳腺增生组织体表红外辐射强度与舌面红外辐射强度的相关性。结果:肝郁痰凝型和冲任失调型患者乳腺增生组织体表红外辐射强度与自身舌面不同检测点红外辐射强度成正相关的波段分别有127个和71个,占总波段数的83.55%和46.71%。结论:舌面红外辐射强度可以作为乳腺增生病中医舌诊的辅助指标。

Objective： To establish a supplementary diagnostic indicator （infrared radiant intensity） in tongue diagnosis of traditional Chinese medicine （TCM） in patients with hyperplasia of mammary glands through correlation analysis of infrared radiant intensity between hyperplastic breast tissue and tongue surface. Methods： Infrared radiant intensity of the hyperplastic breast tissue and different points on tongue surface in 20 cases of hyperplasia of mammary glands with liver-energy stagnation and phlegm retention syndrome and 16 cases of hyperplasia of mammary glands with irregular thoroughfare and conception vessels syndrome were measured with external infrared spectrometer PHE-201 made by Shanghai Institute of Technical Physics. Correlation of infrared radiant intensity between the hyperplastic breast tissue and the different points on tongue surface was assessed by using bivariate correlation analysis. Results： The results showed that the numbers of positive correlated wave bands of infrared radiant intensity between the hyperplastic breast tissue and different detected points on tongue surface in the patients with liver-energy stagnation and phlegm retention syndrome and irregular thoroughfare and conception vessels syndrome were 127 （83.55%） and 71 （46.71%）, respectively, Infrared radiant intensity between the hyperplastic breast tissue and the tongue surface had a positive correlation. Conclusion： Infrared radiant intensity can be used as one of supplementary diagnostic indicators in TCM tongue diagnosis of hyperplasia of mammary glands.
