Each type of fiber has a particular spectral response which needs to be
considered, as wavelengths of interest may be affected. Also, heat may be a
consideration. In addition, the angle of the input and exit cone needs to be
considered. You may end up either overfilling or underfilling the next lens
in the system. Light guides can not be switched without some thought to all
of the parameters of light handling.
        But there are many good books on these subjects.

Daniel,

I thnk that you can also use liquid light guides for this purpose.  Contact
Manny Hubert at EFOS: Manny Hubert <manfredh@efos.com>.  He's the guy I
rely on for this type of stuff.
