A microendoscope system configured to create a sectioned image can include a spinning disc with a reflective grating. At least a portion of light returning from a fiber bundle and that passes through the grating can be imaged onto a CCD. At least a portion of light returning from the fiber bundle and which strikes the reflective grating can emanate from the background of the sample being imaged. This is reflected onto a second CCD, thereby resulting in a recorded background image. Subtracting the two images can result in a sectioned image.
