Abstract

Methods and systems are provided to enable multiple imaging modalities with a single camera head. The camera head may include a single chip system capable of measuring different wavelengths of light on different regions of the same image sensor to generate different images. The light source in the system can adjust the output spectra by using a plurality of illuminants and filters, and measurements from different light channels from different regions of the image sensor can be used to generate white light images, fluorescence image, perfusion images, fluorescein images, and the like.
