Three-dimensional miniature endoscopy
Article Abstract:
A new type of endoscopy is described that enables video-rate, three-dimensional images to be transmitted from flexible probes that are comparable in diameter to a human hair. Spectrally encoded endoscopy (SEE) is a miniature-endoscopy technique that overcomes various limitations of fibre-optic imaging bundles and using fluorescent light might be useful for imaging labelled molecular species, reporters and molecular beacons.
