چکیده

Fiber optic probes are a key element for biomedical spectroscopic sensing. We review the use of fiber optic probes for optical spectroscopy, focusing on applications in turbid media, such as tissue. The design of probes for reflectance, polarized reflectance, fluorescence, and Raman spectroscopy is illustrated. We cover universal design principles as well as technologies for beam deflecting and reshaping.

Instrumentation as a source of variability in the application of fluorescence spectroscopic devices for detecting cervical neoplasia.

We report on a study designed to assess variability among three different fluorescence spectroscopy devices, four fiber optic probes, and three sets of optical calibration standards to better understand the reproducibility of measurements and interdevice comparisons of fluorescence spectroscopic data intended for clinical diagnostic use. Multiple measurements are acquired from all sets of stand...

Study of probe-sample distance for biomedical spectra measurement

BACKGROUND Fiber-based optical spectroscopy has been widely used for biomedical applications. However, the effect of probe-sample distance on the collection efficiency has not been well investigated. METHOD In this paper, we presented a theoretical model to maximize the illumination and collection efficiency in designing fiber optic probes for biomedical spectra measurement. This model was in...

Raman and coherent anti-Stokes Raman scattering microspectroscopy for biomedical applications.

A tutorial article is presented for the use of linear and nonlinear Raman microspectroscopies in biomedical diagnostics. Coherent anti-Stokes Raman scattering (CARS) is the most frequently applied nonlinear variant of Raman spectroscopy. The basic concepts of Raman and CARS are introduced first, and subsequent biomedical applications of Raman and CARS are described. Raman microspectroscopy is a...

Quantitative optical spectroscopy for tissue diagnosis.

The interaction of light within tissue has been used to recognize disease since the mid-1800s. The recent developments of small light sources, detectors, and fiber optic probes provide opportunities to quantitatively measure these interactions, which yield information for diagnosis at the biochemical, structural, or (patho)physiological level within intact tissues. However, because of the stron...

Optical fiber probe for biomedical Raman spectroscopy.

In vitro experiments have demonstrated the ability of Raman spectroscopy to diagnose a wide variety of diseases. Recent in vivo investigations performed with optical fiber probes were promising but generally limited to easily accessible organs, often requiring relatively long collection times. We have implemented an optical design strategy to utilize system throughput fully by characterizing th...
