Early detection: compact optics
The ultra-miniature SFDI system is designed to be incorporated into colonoscopes. By leveraging the phenomenon of light interference, the endoscopic system can reveal information about the optical properties of tissue under investigation. In this photo, Dr. Jane Crowley holds a prototype device, in which the 3-mm diameter fiber tip encases the ultra-miniature camera. Credit: J. Crowley/University of Nottingham.
