Technical Field

Background
The Optical Coherence Tomography (OCT) technique is a new biomedical Optical imaging method, which can provide high resolution images (axial resolution 5-10 μm, transverse resolution 20-40 μm) of the cross section of blood vessels through an endoscopic imaging catheter. The optical imaging probe is a key component of the endoscopic imaging catheter, and the optical performance of the optical imaging probe directly influences imaging indexes such as resolution, imaging depth, contrast and the like of an image. In order to realize clear scan of the OCT on the narrow tissue in the human body, the imaging probe must be ensured to smoothly pass through the curved narrow lesion and rotate to scan, so the technical difficulty is miniaturization of the OCT endoscopic imaging probe.
When the OCT catheter tip is manufactured, a section of blue Pebax tube (a far-end identification tube) is required to be connected to the tail end of the imaging window tube to serve as a mark. The existing operation generally adopts the following modes: and (4) coating ultraviolet glue on the outer surface of the far-end identification tube by an operator, penetrating the far-end identification tube into the imaging window tube, and irradiating and curing by using an ultraviolet lamp.
This approach has the following disadvantages: the uv gel increases the risk of adverse blood contact due to direct contact of the tip with the blood of the human body. In addition, because the tip is formed by curing two kinds of pipes with ultraviolet glue, the tip is hard and the end surface is not smooth, so that the risk of adverse effect on blood vessels is increased.
