| 摘要 |
The invention relates to optical probes for miniature applications, e.g. medical inspections and procedures or in industrial inspections, in particular a probe applying a confocal scanning-scanning endoscope. The probe comprises an optical guide (2), a first lens system mounted (4) on a distal end portion (2A) of the optical guide for focusing light from the optical guide, actuation means (6,7) for displacing the distal end portion and the first lens system to enable optical scanning, and a second lens system (9) fixed inside the probe to receive radiation from the first lens system. The second lens system is selected to enable a deflection of radiation from the first lens system in a direction corresponding to a direction of displacement of the first lens system by the actuation means. The second lens system can be a cheap negative lens, and the invention is thereby particularly useful for increasing the field of view (FOV) cheap, disposable optical probes. |
