REDUCED BACK REFLECTION OPTICAL COHERENCE TOMOGRAPHY PROBE |
| 摘要 |
A beam-shaping optical system suitable for use with optical coherence tomography including a sheath defining a central cavity, a beam-shaping insert defining a beam-shaping element positioned within the central cavity, and an optical fiber having a core and a cladding. The optical fiber defines an angularly prepared fiber end configured to emit an electromagnetic beam toward the beam-shaping element with the core of the optical fiber locally expanded at the fiber end. |

1. A beam-shaping optical system suitable for use with optical coherence tomography, comprising:
a sheath defining a central cavity; a beam-shaping insert defining a beam-shaping element positioned within the central cavity; and an optical fiber having a core and a cladding, the optical fiber defining an angularly prepared fiber end configured to emit an electromagnetic beam toward the beam-shaping element, wherein the core of the optical fiber has at least one of a locally expanded core at the fiber end or the fiber end is tapered. |
