An integrated quantum probe for magnetic field imaging is proposed, where the nitrogen-vacancy (NV) center fixed at the fiber tip is located on the periphery of flexible ring resonator. Using flexible polyimide (PI) as the substrate medium, we design a circular microstrip antenna, which can achieve a bandwidth of 140 MHz at Zeeman splitting frequency of 2.87 GHz, specifically suitable for NV center experiments. Subsequently, this antenna is seamlessly fixed at a three-dimensional-printed cylindrical support, allowing the optical fiber tip to extend out of a dedicated aperture. To mitigate errors originating from processing, precise tuning within a narrow range can be achieved by adjusting the conformal amplitude. Finally, we image the microwave magnetic field around the integrated probe with high resolution, and determine the suitable area for placing the fiber tip (SAP).
