Abstract
A tissue detection system includes a probe having a body defining a distal end portion for positioning in contact with or close proximity to tissue. The probe includes an emission optical fiber extending from an input end through the probe body to an output end at the distal end portion of the probe body, and a detection optical fiber extending from an output end through the probe body to an input end at the distal end portion of the probe body. An emitter is coupled to the input end of the emission optical fiber and a detector is coupled to the output end of the detection optical fiber. One or more optical elements is disposed at the detector filter out electromagnetic radiation received from the detection optical fiber below a pre-determined wavelength threshold or outside of a pre-determined wavelength range.
