    Bio-inspired Endoscope provides 3D Visible and Near-Infrared images simultaneously

    December 23, 2020, Categories  Health/Medical, Biology/Biotechnology

    Researchers developed a new bio-inspired medical endoscope that acquires visible light and near-infrared fluorescence images at the same time. They tested it by imaging three different concentrations of the fluorescent reagent indocyanine green. Images show (a) a near-infrared fluorescence image, (b) the intensity distribution of the near-infrared fluorescence image, (c) color image of the samples under visible illumination, and (d) a fusion image combining the color image and the near-infrared fluorescence image.
