This work involves the development of a novel endoscope based on Photoacoustic Remote Sensing (PARS), for label-free in vivo imaging of microvasculature. The PARS endoscopy is realized by raster-scanning the proximal end of a coherent, image-guide fiber bundle containing 30,000 cores arranged within a 600-µm diameter image-circle. A graded-index (GRIN) distal-end objective lens is used to focus and collect the reflected probe beam. Based on preliminary results, the endoscope is measured to have a resolution of less than 3-µm. The developed PARS endoscope is characterized using phantoms and validated for in vivo application using a live chicken embryo model.
