Abstract

The aim of the project was to design and construct a light source for autofluorescence imaging. The source was realized as an add-on device to the endoscope. It is based on semiconductor components: a W LED source and a SMD UV LED. Thanks to the SMD source's small dimensions, as many as 15 diodes could be fitted into the add-on device. This innovative tool can be used for autofluorescence imaging in laryngeal tumour diagnosis.
