Abstract
Fiber-optic probes are a key component in a range of emerging clinical applications of optical coherence tomography (OCT). These miniaturized probes offer new possibilities to image diseased tissue deep within the body. This paper presents an overview of the design and use of fiber-optic probes for OCT. Three different deployment scenarios are identified: endoscopic, intravascular and needle-based probes, and specific case studies are presented for both endoscopic and intravascular probes.
