Rapid scanning catheterscope for expanded forward-view volumetric imaging with optical coherence tomography

Abstract: We demonstrate a novel catheterscope, based on scanning fiber endoscopy, for volumetric imaging with optical coherence tomography (OCT), which possesses a high resonance frequency (>2  kHz) and a small outer diameter (OD) (1.07 mm). Our design is the fastest volumetric-scanning, forward-viewing catheterscope for OCT, and the scanning package has the smallest OD of any such OCT package published to date. Using a proof-of-operation catheterscope with commercial lenses, we demonstrate high-quality in vivo and ex … Show more

“…The proposed method could be miniaturized into an endoscope with a diameter as small as 1 mm. 45 The clinical potential of the combination of OCT and HSI arises from both modalities bringing complementary views of the sample: the first one giving access to sample morphology and the second to sample molecular composition. Their combination in a clinical setting could improve current diagnostic practice.…”

“…A side-viewing catheter with an ultrafast micromotor scanner was used for intravascular OCT imaging at 3 MHz, using an FDML laser [129]. Recently, a forward-viewing catheter with small outer diameter was demonstrated at 2 kHz frame rate [130].…”

“…The endomicroscopic microscanners mainly divide into scanning mirror, a single optical fiber scanner [7,9,[14][15][16][17][18][19][20], or a lens scanner [13,[21][22][23][24]. First, the scanning MEMS mirrors are operated by using electrostatic [25][26][27][28][29][30][31], electromagnetic [22,32], or electrothermal [33][34][35][36][37][38][39] actuation.…”
