In this study, a photoacoustic/ultrasonic dual‐modality endoscopic system with a miniaturized, encapsulated imaging catheter, which provides a full 360° field‐of‐view was developed. We conducted invivo rat studies to demonstrate the performance of this dual‐modality system. The results showed the typical morphology and vasculature, which is valuable for evaluating the gastrointestinal tract.
