A system in one embodiment includes an image forming device for forming an image from an area of interest containing different image components an illumination device for illuminating the area of interest with light containing multiple components at least one light source coupled to the illumination device, the at least one light source providing light to the illumination device containing different components, each component having distinct spectral characteristics and relative intensity an image analyzer coupled to the image forming device, the image analyzer decomposing the image formed by the image forming device into multiple component parts based on type of imaging and multiple image capture devices, each image capture device receiving one of the component parts of the image. A method in one embodiment includes receiving an image from an image forming device decomposing the image formed by the image forming device into multiple component parts based on type of imaging receiving the component parts of the image and outputting image information based on the component parts of the image. Additional systems and methods are presented.
