Despite significant effort, cancer still remains a leading cause of death worldwide. In order to
reduce its burden, the development and improvement of noninvasive strategies for early …

Raman scattering has long been used to analyze chemical compositions in biological
systems. Owing to its high chemical specificity and noninvasive detection capability, Raman …

Novel approaches toward understanding the evolution of disease can lead to the discovery
of biomarkers that will enable better management of disease progression and improve …

Raman spectroscopy is a promising new tool for noninvasive, real-time diagnosis of tissue
abnormalities. Here, we show evidence of its application for cancer diagnosis in four distinct …

There is an urgent need for improved techniques for disease detection. Optical spectroscopy
and imaging technologies have potential for non-or minimally-invasive use in a wide range …

As the possibilities in the treatment of cancer continue to evolve, its early detection and
correct diagnosis are becoming increasingly important. From the early detection of cancer to …

Raman spectroscopy is an optical technique based on inelastic scattering of light by
vibrating molecules and can provide chemical fingerprints of cells, tissues or biofluids. The …

Optical spectroscopy has been extensively studied as a potential in vivo diagnostic tool that
can provide information about both the chemical and morphologic structure of tissue in near …

The gold standard for clinical diagnostics of tissues is immunofluorescence staining. Toxicity
of many fluorescent dyes precludes their application in vivo. Raman spectroscopy, a …

This article reviews recent developments in the attempt to develop diagnostic techniques for
cancers and precancers based on Raman spectroscopy. The article summarizes some facts …
