Abstract
We describe a simple modification to a rigid endoscope so as to provide both high quality conventional endoscopic as well as and confocal endoscopic images of reasonably accessible regions of the body in real time. The systems are based around either host lenslet-array tandem scanning microscope together with laser illumination or a structured illumination approach together with a conventional incoherent illumination source. Images taken in fluorescence are presented using this combined conventional and confocal endoscope.
