Abstract

Provided are Raman systems and methods for detection of cancerous tissues in tumor margins in real time during surgical procedures. The systems include a laser excitation source, a probe, a spectrometer and a camera specifically designed for use of Raman spectroscopy in real time during surgery. The inventive methods pertain to quality assessment of Raman data, comparison of obtained Raman data against known biomarkers and classification of tissue as cancerous or non-cancerous on the basis of corresponding Raman data. The systems and methods allow for previously unavailable detection and classification of tissue with Raman spectroscopy in real time surgical applications, including the identification of cancer sub-types.
