Paper Abstract
We have developed a mobile confocal microendoscope system that provides live cellular imaging during surgery
to aid in diagnosing microscopic abnormalities including cancer. We present initial clinical trial results using the
device to image ovaries in-vivo using fluorescein and ex-vivo results using acridine orange. The imaging catheter
has improved depth control and localized dye delivery mechanisms than previously presented. A manual control
now provides a simple way for the surgeon to adjust and optimize imaging depth during the procedure while a
tiny piezo valve in the imaging catheter controls the dye delivery.
