Sensing and Imaging in Tissue Using Fiber Optics: 3D Micro-imaging Optics and Medical Applications

Open Access Open Access

Abstract

We have designed high-performance imaging optics on the tip of single-mode optical fibers. Embedding such probes within a rigid needle provides access to deep tissues impossible with surface-based imaging and, as well, a natural actuator for optical elastography.
