The Spectroscopy Lab developed a device that detects precancerous tissue by sequentially delivering laser light of 10 different colors to the tissue via an optical fiber probe. The probe, shown here, consists of a bundle of optical fibers with a diameter of just over 1mm, making it compatible with standard endoscopes. The returning light is collected using the same probe and analyzed with a spectr...
