Dual path endoscope

A dual path endoscope system comprising:

• a multi-function light source producing a first light and a second light and directing said first light and said second light toward an object, said first light exhibiting first light characteristics, said second light exhibiting second light characteristics different from said first light characteristics;
• an endoscope including two light paths, the disparity between said two light paths being larger than zero, each light path at least comprising:
• a respective pupil;
• and
• a respective light separator optically coupled with said pupil for transmitting there through a respective one of said first light and said second light, thereby associating said first light and said second light with a respective light path;
• a dual channel imager at least including two imaging sensors, each imaging sensor being associated with a respective one of said light paths, each imaging sensor being optically coupled with the light separator associated with the respective light path, each imaging sensor exhibiting sensitivity to the characteristics of said respective one of said first light and said second light, a first one of said imaging sensors acquires a first image of said first light reflected of said object and a second one of said imaging sensors acquires a second image of said second light reflected of said object;
• and
• a processor, coupled with said dual channel imager for processing said acquired images.
