Raman spectroscopy for medical diagnostics
ثبت نشده
چکیده
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 specifics of data processing. At the end, I will present two examples of Raman spectroscopy used in medical diagnostics for detection of breast and skin cancer.
