Abstract: A method to inspect a solid organ in a subject includes introducing a needle in a predetermined area of the solid organ, inserting an optical probe through a lumen of the needle, and imaging the predetermined area using the optical probe. An optical probe to inspect a solid organ in a subject, the optical probe being intended to be positioned in the solid organ through a needle, the optical probe includes an optical fiber bundle, a ferule to protect the distal tip of the optical fiber bundle, the ferule comprising a shank and a head, and a sheath wrapping the fiber bundle and the shank, wherein the head of the ferule has a length adapted for the optical probe to image the solid organ while keeping the sheath inside the needle.

Abstract: A miniaturized optical head provided to equip the distal end of a beam of flexible optical fibers scanned by a laser beam, is designed to come in contact with a sample and to excite the sample confocally. This optical head includes elements for correcting spherical aberrations and focusing members. The focusing members include: at least a first lens (L4) of high convergence associated with a spherical or hemispherical lens (L5) arranged at the distal end of the optical head, and elements for correcting the axial and lateral chromatic aberration provided with a single divergent lens (3b) whose curvature is substantially centered on the pupil of the optical fiber beam and arranged at the exact distance for this pupil for which the conditions of lateral achromatization coincide with the conditions of axial achromatization; this divergent lens being associated with a second convergent lens (L3a) in the form of a doublet (L3).

Abstract: La présente invention concerne un dispositif d'imagerie, comprenant : un module d'illumination (1) comprenant des moyens pour émettre au moins un faisceau d'excitation ; un module de balayage et d'injection (2) comprenant un guide d'image (3) dont deux extrémités respectivement proximale (3a) et distale (3b) sont reliées par une pluralité de fibres optiques, et des moyens (6) de balayage et d'injection agencés pour injecter l'au moins un faisceau d'excitation tour à tour dans une fibre du guide d'image (3) et du côté proximal (3a) du guide ; un module de détection (4) comprenant des moyens pour détecter un flux lumineux (14) collecté à l'extrémité distale (3b) du guide. Au moins un parmi le module d'illumination (1) et le module de détection (4) est conjugué optiquement au module de balayage et d'injection (2) par une fibre optique de conjugaison (5, 7). L'utilisation de fibres de conjugaison (5, 7) permet d'améliorer la maintenance, la réparation et la mise à jour du dispositif, et peut en outre permettre de réaliser un filtrage modal du faisceau d'excitation et d'assurer la confocalité du dispositif.
