Ultrathin 3D-printed Imaging Devices Abstract Preclinical studies and clinical diagnostics increasingly rely on optical techniques to visualize internal organs. Miniaturised catheters or endoscopes are necessary for imaging small and/or delicate arteries. However, current lens fabrication methods limit the performance of these ultrathin devices, resulting in a poor combination of resolution, depth of focus and multimodal […]
