#$%^&*AU2011200594B220120517.pdf#####C. NRPonbl DCC AXL 3462834 I DOC-1 I/)2/201 ABSTRACT An optical fiber assembly adapted for use with an endoscope, the optical fiber assembly comprising: an optical fiber having a proximal end and a distal end; a tip at or near the distal end of the optical fiber, the tip having an emission surface through which 5 radiation from the optical fiber is directed; a fiber port cap, having a fiber receiving opening, and adapted to cooperate with and at least partially close a corresponding fiber port on the endoscope, the optical fiber passing through the fiber receiving opening; and a travel limiter, coupled to the optical fiber at a predetermined distance from the tip of the optical fiber between the fiber port cap and the tip, the travel limiter adapted to cooperate 10 with a corresponding element of the endoscope to limit rotational movement of the optical fiber relative to the endoscope to a predetermined arc and to limit longitudinal movement of the optical fiber relative to the endoscope.1/13
