    摘要: A multi-channel optical coherence tomography probe for use in a medical procedure is provided. The probe comprises: a plurality of first optical fibers optically connectable to an OCT light source; a plurality of second optical fibers different from the plurality of first optical fibers; a scanning device comprising: an actuator configured to rotationally move the plurality of second optical fibers between a first position and a second position, relative to the plurality of first optical fibers; and, a mirror configured to, as the plurality of second optical fibers is moving rotationally, convey light from exit faces of the plurality of first optical fibers to entrance faces of the plurality of second optical fibers; and, a housing containing the plurality of second optical fibers.
