Spontaneous Raman spectroscopy for intracranial tumors diagnostics ex vivo

Raman spectroscopy for medical diagnostics

Raman spectroscopy is based on analysis of inelastically scattered light. This technique has a wide range of uses in chemistry, solid-state physics and other fields. Raman spectroscopy can distinguish between molecules and can identify them by their characteristic spectra. In this seminar I will discuss instrumentation required for Raman spectroscopy in medical applications, followed by specifi...

Ex vivo peripheral nerve detection of rats by spontaneous Raman spectroscopy

Nerve-sparing surgery is increasingly being applied to avoid functional deficits of the limbs and organs following surgery. Peripheral nerves that should be preserved are, however, sometimes misidentified due to similarity of shape and color to non-nerve tissues. To avoid misidentification of peripheral nerves, development of an in situ nerve detection method is desired. In this study, we repor...

Prospects for in vivo Raman spectroscopy.

Raman spectroscopy is a potentially important clinical tool for real-time diagnosis of disease and in situ evaluation of living tissue. The purpose of this article is to review the biological and physical basis of Raman spectroscopy of tissue, to assess the current status of the field and to explore future directions. The principles of Raman spectroscopy and the molecular level information it p...

High Performance Method for Skin Roughness Detection Using Raman Spectroscopy

In vivo diagnostics of early abiotic plant stress response via Raman spectroscopy.

Development of a phenotyping platform capable of noninvasive biochemical sensing could offer researchers, breeders, and producers a tool for precise response detection. In particular, the ability to measure plant stress in vivo responses is becoming increasingly important. In this work, a Raman spectroscopic technique is developed for high-throughput stress phenotyping of plants. We show the ea...
