Abstract: Embodiments related to medical imaging devices including rigid imaging tips and their methods of use for identifying abnormal tissue within a surgical bed are disclosed. An imaging device may include a housing having a first channel and a light guide disposed at least partially in the first channel. The imaging device may also include a clamp disposed in the housing, where the clamp is configured to apply a force to a rigid exterior portion of the light guide in a clamp direction transverse to the light guide longitudinal axis to secure the light guide to the housing. The clamp may have a clamp longitudinal axis parallel to a light guide longitudinal axis.
