ABSTRACT:
An optical fiber is disposed in the direction of axis of the outer envelope inside a tubular outer envelope. Light emitted from the front end of the optical fiber is collected and projected on a body-to-be-scanned disposed externally of the outer envelope, and converged on the body-to-be-scanned. The outer envelope is filled with liquid so that the optical fiber is in the liquid.
