“…To date, SFEs have been used to image the esophagus11 and pancreatic and bile ducts,12 as well as the respiratory tree,13 but there have been no reports of their use for endovascular imaging. In this work, we demonstrate for the first time the feasibility of using the SFE for endoluminal imaging in a porcine model and demonstrate its utility during typical neurointerventional procedures.…”

“…SFE has been undertaken in limited cases to perform cholangioscopy in patients with pancreaticobiliary strictures. It is a feasible technology to directly view such areas with better resolution than current cholangioscopic tools[52]. A tethered SFE “capsule” for conducting esophagoscopy has been developed, in what could represent an evolution of the tethered wireless capsule endoscope[53].…”

Since its original application, gastrointestinal (GI) endoscopy has undergone many innovative transformations aimed at expanding the scope, safety, accuracy, acceptability and cost-effectiveness of this area of clinical practice. One method of achieving this has been to reduce the caliber of endoscopic devices. We propose the collective term “Miniature GI Endoscopy”. In this Opinion Review, the innovations in this field are explored and discussed. The progress and clinical use of the three main areas of miniature GI endoscopy (ultrathin endoscopy, wireless endoscopy and scanning fiber endoscopy) are described. The opportunities presented by these technologies are set out in a clinical context, as are their current limitations. Many of the positive aspects of miniature endoscopy are clear, in that smaller devices provide access to potentially all of the alimentary canal, while conferring high patient acceptability. This must be balanced with the costs of new technologies and recognition of device specific challenges. Perspectives on future application are also considered and the efforts being made to bring new innovations to a clinical platform are outlined. Current devices demonstrate that miniature GI endoscopy has a valuable place in investigation of symptoms, therapeutic intervention and screening. Newer technologies give promise that the potential for enhancing the investigation and management of GI complaints is significant.

“…58 Scanning fiber endoscopy Scanning fiber endoscopy (SFE) is an ultra-light, flexible endoscope that is capable of analyzing the tissue using laser scanning (red, green and blue) to produce a wide-angle, full-color, high-resolution image. 59 SFE has been successfully used in ex vivo bladder models, but its viability within an in vivo approach is still under investigation. 60,62 Molecular imaging Molecular imaging (MI) is the combination of macroscopic optical imaging techniques and the administration of fluorescent-labeled elements (FLEs) like antibodies.…”

Optical improvements of the standard white-light cystoscopy have proven their benefit in the detection of BCa and have found their way into clinical practice. Especially the combination of macroscopic and microscopic techniques may improve diagnostic accuracy. Nevertheless, HAL-PDD guided cystoscopy is the only approach approved for routine use in the diagnosis of BCa by most urological associations in the EU and USA to date.
