(a) Schematic for CP-LCI guided microincision. S, distance between fiber sensor tip and microdissector tip; d, distance from fiber sensor tip to target tissue surface; H, microincision depth. (b) Design of the free hand-holding tool, IN: inner needle for surgical tool mounting; ON: outer needle for protection and alignment; ST: surgical tip; PM: piezoelectric micromotor; MC: micromotor cord; SMF: single mode fiber. (c) A CP-LCI integrated microdissector made from a hypodermic needle. (d) A prototype of the handheld tool.
