Abstract
An endoscopic probe with high resolution and multiple contrasts provides useful diagnostic information. For example, a miniature probe capable of multimodal imaging including photoacoustic imaging, optical coherence tomography (OCT), and ultrasound has been reported. However, microscale resolution is only realized in OCT modality in the probe, which may restrict the applications where high resolutions for multiple contrasts are required. Here, we present an approach to construct a miniature scanhead with 2.8 mm in diameter that achieves high-resolution multispectral photoacoustic microscopy (PAM) and OCT. The method realizes high resolution of ∼10 μm for both PAM and OCT. We experimentally demonstrate ex vivo and in vivo imaging using the scanhead.
