    Abstract: The invention relates to an optical image probe(20) for particularly suited for miniature application e.g. in-vivo. A fluid lens(5) is positioned a housing (19),the fluid lens having a changeable optical power. An image collector (40) is positioned within the housing, the collector being arranged on an optical path of the fluid lens, the collector being displaceable along the said optical path by an actuator (42, 70, 80, 90) in various ways. It is highly advantageous in obtaining a compact optical image probe and which simultaneously has a high zoom factor. Due the possible displacement of the image collector and the changeable optical power of the fluid lens, and cooperation between these two elements, it is possible to obtain a compact endoscope with a wide dynamic range of zoom factor with satisfactory focusing properties.

    Abstract: The present invention relates to a higher-order dispersion compensation device (210), the device being adapted to cooperate with a pair of optical components (Pl, P2), e.g. a pair of prisms, being arranged to compensate first-order dispersion by separating different wavelengths spatially. The compensation device (210) has the form of a phase plate, wherein the phase change for each wavelength is adjusted by designing the height (h) at the corresponding position (x) of the plate so as to substantially compensate for higher-order dispersion. The invention is advantageous for obtaining a higher-order dispersion compensation device which is relatively simple to construct and use making it a quite cost- effective device. The invention also relates to a corresponding optical system and method for compensating dispersion where this is important, e.g. in a multiple-photon imaging system.

    Abstract: The invention relates an optical probe (1) suitable for non- linear optics such as two-photon imaging for medical purposes. The probe has an optical guide (2) and a lens system (6) positioned rigidly at an end portion (2a) of the optical guide. Additionally, a housing (3) with a cavity for the optical guide (2) and the lens system (6), the housing having at its distal end a transparent window (4), is comprised in the probe. The optical guide (2) with the lens system (6) is displaceably mounted within the housing, preferably in a transverse direction. Also, the housing (3) has an auxiliary, peripheral optical guide (5) optically connected to the transparent window (4). The invention is advantageous for obtaining an optical probe with a significantly larger collection efficiency. The optical probe may advantageous be applied in connection with two-photon spectroscopy where both ballisitic photons and diffusing fluorescence photons can be used in the detection of an event.

    Abstract: The present invention refers to the field of image-guided percutaneous needle biopsies, in particular to a light guiding hook wire comprising a light-guiding optical fiber (LGM, LGHW) for transferring light from one end on which a beam of input light are incident to another end placed in a cancerous tissue region around the tip of the hookwire, thereby providing an output light assignable to the intensity of the input light; and a liquid guiding device for providing a liquid to the region of interest. The present invention further refers to a method for excising non-palpable pathological tissue regions in the interior of a patient's body, especially tissue regions indicative of breast or prostate cancer, by using such a hookwire. A targeted contrast agent fluorescent in the visible or near-infrared spectrum of light can be used to mark cancerous tissue anomalies, and a light-guiding optical fiber (LGM, LGHW) may provide the light needed for an excitation of this tissue.

    Abstract: A switchable optical element has an optical axis. The element includes a chamber, a wave front modifier having a face defining an interior surface of the chamber (the face extending transverse the optical axis), a first fluid and a second fluid. The fluids are immiscible and in contact over an interface. The optical element is switchable between a first discrete state in which the first fluid substantially covers the face of the wave front modifier, and a second discrete state in which the second fluid substantially covers the face of the wave front modifier, wherein the chamber encloses both fluids in both discrete states, and the interlace extends transverse the optical axis in the first discrete state.
