摘要:
An OCT probe for imaging patient tissue includes a probe housing, and includes a cannula extending from the probe housing and arranged to penetrate patient tissue. The cannula may include a main body segment and a distal segment. The main body segment may have a lumen defining a first central axis, and the distal segment may have a lumen defining a second central axis that is angled from the first central axis. A lens is disposed in the distal segment. The lens may have a proximal side and a distal side and an optical axis. The optical axis may be substantially parallel to the second central axis and may be angled relative to the first central axis.

摘要:
An optical light scanning probe is presented, the probe comprising a handle, shaped for grasping by a user; a cannula, protruding from a distal portion of the handle with an outer diameter smaller than 20 gauge; an optical fiber with a distal fiber-portion off a probe-axis, configured to receive a light from a light-source at a proximal fiber-portion, and to emit the received light at the distal fiber-portion; a fixed beam forming unit, disposed at a distal portion of the cannula, configured to receive the light from the distal fiber-portion, and to deflect the received light toward a target region; and a fiber actuator, housed at least partially in the handle, configured to move the distal fiber-portion to scan the deflected light along a scanning curve in the target region.
