A device and method is provided for a suction tool combined with an optical probe. A suction device is provided having a tip with a hollow tubular body, a plurality of optical fibers embedded in the tip and a concentric ring attached to the tip, wherein the ring end has an inner beveled reflective surface opposing the optical fibers. A method is provided for optically measuring tissue in a medical procedure comprising suctioning a tissue using a suction device, sending optical signals along optical fibers through the suction device； directing the signals from the optical fibers onto the tissue using a beveled surface； receiving optical signals from the tissue in optical fibers via the beveled reflective surface； measuring the received optical signals in a spectrometer or detector； and releasing, resecting or ablating the tissue through the suction device.
