We present the results of differential scanning calorimetry (DSC) and Raman studies in the
temperature range of 293–77 K on vibrational properties of the oleic acid and the human …

Simple Summary Recent advances in the state of the art for early cancer detection and
therapy have led to a paradigm shift in the way the disease is detected and treated. In …

Breast conserving surgery (BCS) is a recommended treatment for breast cancer patients
where the goal is to remove the tumor and a surrounding rim of normal tissue. Unfortunately …

Abstract Machine learning approaches were employed for malignant breast tumour
diagnosis and evaluation of the prognostic risk of recrudescence and metastasis by using …

Background Being able to accurately identify sensory and motor nerves is crucial during
surgical procedures to prevent nerve injury. We aimed to (1) evaluate the feasibility of …

We explored the use of both empirical (Partial Least Squares, PLS) and Monte Carlo model
based approaches for the analysis of fluorescence and diffuse reflectance spectra measured …

Purpose One of the major problems in breast cancer surgery is defining surgical margins
and establishing complete tumor excision within a single surgical procedure. The goal of this …

A novel technology and instrumentation for fine needle aspiration (FNA) breast biopsy
guidance is presented. This technology is based on spectral-domain low coherence …

Computer simulation is used to facilitate the design of fiber-probe geometries that enable
enhanced detection of optical signals arising from specific tissue depths. Obtaining …

Optical spectroscopy methods have had considerable impact in the field of biomedical
diagnostics, providing novel methods for the early or noninvasive diagnosis of various …
