ENDOMICROSCOPIC HAVING ULTRA COMPACT LENSED FIBER PROBE

摘要

The present invention relates to an endoscope having a microscopic optical fiber probe, and relates to an endoscope having a microscopic optical fiber probe manufactured using a lens-type optical fiber to obtain an optical scanning image as a catheter mounted on the endoscope. An endoscope including an optical fiber probe for obtaining an optical image of a region of interest, the optical fiber probe comprising: an optical fiber having a lens on one end thereof; A driver for driving the optical fibers in two axes perpendicular to each other; A mass body integrally provided at the end of the optical fiber; And an asymmetric structure integrally provided on one side of the optical fiber and having different shapes in the biaxial direction. Since the endoscope having an optical fiber probe of the present invention does not use a separate lens, the length of the optical fiber probe is formed short, so that when it is mounted on the endoscope and inserted into the human body, the search unit of the endoscope can be prevented from being excessively bent.
