Abstract :
A miniature optical imaging probe based on a high-fill-factor MEMS mirror has been developed for nondestructive diagnosis of articular joint diseases and injuries. The MEMS mirror scans plusmn30deg at less than 6 V in both x- and y-axis. The outer diameter of the probe is 5.8 mm. Three-dimensional polarization-sensitive optical coherence tomography of canine meniscus has been successfully demonstrated.
