A miniature endomicroscope is presented that combines a large field-of-view (up to 1.7 mm) for OCT-imaging and a high-resolution mode with 360 μm field-of-view (NA = 0.5) for multi-photon fluorescence or OCT imaging. The 4.7x magnification variation is achieved by the axial positioning of an inner micro-optical lens group using an integrated electro-magnetic z-actuator. A reverse fiber-optic piezotube-scanner with minimized length is employed for the image acquisition by resonant spiral scanning. With the probe diameter of 2.7 mm and a rigid length of about 60 mm, the approach may pave the way to clinical applications of these two modalities in a single probe.
