Abstract:
An endoscope apparatus includes a fiber optic cable with a proximal end and a distal end opposite the proximal end. The endoscope apparatus also includes a light source optically coupled to the proximal end of the fiber optic cable to emit visible light and excitation light into the fiber optic cable for output from the distal end. The light source is configured to emit both the visible light and the excitation light simultaneously, and a wavelength of the excitation light is outside a wavelength spectrum of the visible light. An image sensor is configured to receive a reflection of the visible light as reflected visible light.

Claim (Index 3):
The endoscope apparatus of  claim 2 , wherein the light source includes one or more laser sources to emit the visible light and the excitation light, and wherein the wavelength of the excitation light is longer than the wavelength spectrum of the visible light.
