摘 要:High resolution optical endoscopes are increasingly used in diagnosis of various medical condi-tions of internal organs,such as the cervix and gastrointestinal(GI)tracts,but they are too expensive for use in resource poor *** the other hand,smartphones with high resolution cameras and Internet access have become more affordable,enabling them to difuse into most rural areas and developing countries in the past *** this paper,we describe a smartphone microendoscope that can take fuorescence images with a spatial resolution of 3.1 *** collected from ex vivo,in vnitro and in vivo samples using the device are also *** compact and cost-effective smart phone microendosoope may be envisaged as a powerful tool for detecting pre cancerous lesions of internal organs in low and middle income countries(LMICs).
