Abstract EN
Currently, positive endoscopic biopsy is the standard criterion for gastric cancer diagnosis but is invasive, often inconsistent, and delayed although early detection and early treatment is the most important policy.
Raman spectroscopy is a spectroscopic technique based on inelastic scattering of monochromatic light.
Raman spectrum represents molecular composition of the interrogated volume providing a direct molecular fingerprint.
Several investigations revealed that Raman spectroscopy can differentiate normal, dysplastic, and adenocarcinoma gastric tissue with high sensitivity and specificity.
Moreover, this technique can indentify malignant ulcer and showed the capability to analyze the carcinogenesis process.
Automated on-line Raman spectral diagnostic system raised possibility to use Raman spectroscopy in clinical field.
Raman spectroscopy can be applied in many fields such as guiding a target biopsy, optical biopsy in bleeding prone situation, and delineating the margin of the lesion.
With wide field technology, Raman spectroscopy is expected to have specific role in our future clinical field.
