N1 - Funding Information:
Research on fiber optic devices was supported in part by the Swiss National Science Foundation (Laser Coronary Angioplasty, 32-27888.89) and the Swiss National Science Foundation (fiber optic probes for in vivo spectroscopy, postdoctoral fellowship 1995 and 1996). This work would not have been possible without Pascal Rol (1956 to 2000) (University of Zurich, Department of Ophthalmology, Switzerland).

N2 - Fiber optic probes are a key element for biomedical spectroscopic sensing. We review the use of fiber optic probes for optical spectroscopy, focusing on applications in turbid media, such as tissue. The design of probes for reflectance, polarized reflectance, fluorescence, and Raman spectroscopy is illustrated. We cover universal design principles as well as technologies for beam deflecting and reshaping.
