Piezoelectric transducer based miniature catheter for ultrahigh speed endoscopic optical coherence tomography

We developed a piezoelectric transducer (PZT) based miniature catheter with an outer diameter of 3 mm for ultrahigh speed endoscopic optical coherence tomography (OCT) using Fourier domain modelocked (FDML) laser at a 480 kHz axial scan rate. The miniaturized PZT bender actuates a fiber to provide h...
