Abstract

Apparatus and methods relating to an optical bioptome disposed at the distal end of a catheter or endoscope. The optical bioptome comprises an optical probe that is preferably extensible and retractable axially along the length of the catheter or endoscope, and the jows of the optical bioptome are opened when the optical probe is extended and the jaws are closed when the optical probe is retracted.
