I am thinking about making a device to observe tissue structures in the mouth using a micro camera that would be attached to a small (1-2" square) LCD screen. I've started searching for sources of parts but I am not finding what I want. Does anyone know any sources for micro cameras (not wireless) and LCD screens? Any good sources for pre-made video processing units so I don't have to start soldering board?

I would definantly recomend an endoscope, as even the smallest cameras out are still well over a 1/4" in diameter... As to the LCD, I do not know of any commercial sources, but you usually can usually use the viewfinder from a videocamera with a normal composite signal, you just need to probe arround on the board for a while to figure out where to feed it in.

Medical companies already have devices for scoping body cavities. I want to try and "build a cheaper mousetrap."
I understand there are other items I will need, but right now I am specifically looking for the raw parts to I can capture a video image. I need a fiberoptic cable for the end, a camera to get the internally reflected image and a video processor and screen. This all needs to be hand-held. I need the raw parts because I want to be able to assemble this cheaply and fit it to an illuminated medical device. A pre-packaged "spy-camera" will not work.
I am sure there are sources overseas but I don't have any connections which is why I made the initial post.
