Described are colonoscopy systems and methods of using such systems. The colonoscopy systems may include an optical scanning system having at least one illuminator configured to produce spatially patterned light and solid light in at least one frame to illuminate tissue within the colon, and at least one camera configured to capture the at least one image of the illuminated tissue within the colon. Additionally, the optical scanning system may include at least one control system configured to construct at least one three dimensional point cloud representations of the tissue within the colon.
