Ultrathin lensed fiber-based manual scanning optical coherence tomography needle probe for the detection of the interproximal caries
We propose an ultrathin lensed fiber-based manual scanning OCT needle probe potentially useful for the interproximal caries detection. The design, fabrication, and performances of the developed needle probe are demonstrated. We address a critical issue in the caries diagnostics and offer a promising tool for the future clinical applications.
