1. An infrared imaging probe comprising:

  • a elongate wand having a proximal end and a distal end;

    a front-end assembly coupled to the distal end of the wand, the assembly comprising a lens, a focal plane array, and distal circuitry, the lens being configured to receive image information in the form of infrared energy and direct the infrared energy onto the focal plane array, the distal circuitry being adapted to process signals from the focal plane array and produce an output signal; and

    processing circuitry connected to and electrically isolated from the distal circuitry, the processing circuitry providing an output connection connectable to one or more output/control devices, the processing circuitry being adapted to receive and process the output signal for transmission to the one or more output/control devices via the output connection.
