Breast calcifications are found in both benign and malignant lesions and their composition can indicate the disease state. Calcium oxalate (dihydrate) (COD) is associated with benign lesions, however calcium hydroxyapatite (HAP) is found mainly in proliferative lesions including carcinoma. The diagnostic practices of mammography and histopathology examine the morphology of the specimen. They can not reliably distinguish between the two types of calcification, which may indicate the presence of a cancerous lesion during mammography. We demonstrate for the first time that Kerr-gated Raman spectroscopy is capable of non-destructive probing of sufficient biochemical information from calcifications buried within tissue, and this information can potentially be used as a first step in identifying the type of lesion. The method uses a picosecond pulsed laser combined with fast temporal gating of Raman scattered light to enable spectra to be collected from a specific depth within scattering media by collecting signals emerging from the sample at a given time delay following the laser pulse. Spectra characteristic of both HAP and COD were obtained at depths of up to 0.96 mm, in both chicken breast and fatty tissue; and normal and cancerous human breast by utilising different time delays. This presents great potential for the use of Raman spectroscopy as an adjunct to mammography in the early diagnosis of breast cancer.  相似文献

A new diagnostic concept based on deep Raman spectroscopy is proposed permitting the non-invasive determination of the level of carbonate substitution in type II calcifications (HAP). The carbonate substitution has shown to be directly associated with the pathology of the surrounding breast tissue and different pathology groups can therefore be separated using specific features in the Raman spectra of the calcifications. This study explores the principle of distinguishing between type II calcifications, found in proliferating lesions, by using the strongest Raman peak from calcium hydroxyapatites (the phosphate peak at 960 cm(-1)) to act as a surrogate marker for carbonate substitution levels. It is believed that carbonate ion substitution leads to a perturbation of the hydroxyapatite lattice which in turn affects the phosphate vibrational modes. By studying calcifications, with known carbonate content, buried in porcine tissue it has been possible to evaluate the feasibility of using the proposed approach to probe the composition of the calcifications in vivo and hence provide pathology specific information non-invasively, in real time. Using the proposed concept we were able to determine the level of carbonate substitutions through soft tissue phantom samples (total thickness of 5.6 mm). As the level of carbonate substitution has been previously correlated with mid-FTIR to the lesion type, i.e. whether benign or invasive or in situ carcinoma, the new findings provide a major step forward towards establishing a new capability for diagnosing benign and malignant lesions in breast tissue in a safe and non-invasive manner in vivo.  相似文献

In support of the efforts to combat the illegal sale and distribution of counterfeit anti-malarial drugs, we evaluated a new analytical approach for the characterization and fast screening of fake and genuine artesunate tablets using a combination of Raman spectroscopy, Spatially Offset Raman Spectroscopy (SORS) and Attenuated Total Reflection-Fourier Transform Infrared (ATR-FTIR) imaging. Vibrational spectroscopy provided chemically specific information on the composition of the tablets; the complementary nature of Raman scattering and FTIR imaging allowed the characterization of both the overall and surface composition of the tablets. The depth-resolving power of the SORS approach provided chemically specific information on the overall composition of the tablets, non-invasively, through a variety of packaging types. Spatial imaging of the tablet surface (using ATR-FTIR) identified the location of domains of excipients and active ingredients with high sensitivity and enhanced spatial resolution. The advantages provided by a combination of SORS and ATR-FTIR imaging in this context confirm its potential for inclusion in the analytical protocol for forensic investigation of counterfeit medicines.  相似文献

The objective of this study is to use time-resolved (TR) Raman spectroscopy, spatially offset Raman spectroscopy (SORS), and a combination of these approaches to obtain high quality Raman spectra from materials hidden underneath an opaque layer. Both TR Raman and SORS are advanced techniques that allow for an increased relative selectivity of photons from deeper layers within a sample. Time-resolved detection reduces fluorescence background, and the selectivity for the second layer is improved. By combining this with spatially offset excitation we additionally increased selectivity for deeper layers. Test samples were opaque white polymer blocks of several mm thicknesses. Excitation was carried out with a frequency-doubled Ti:sapphire laser at 460 nm, 3 ps pulse width and 76 MHz repetition rate. Detection was either with a continuous-wave CCD camera or in time-resolved mode using an intensified CCD camera with a 250 ps gate width. The Raman photons were collected in backscatter mode, with or without lateral offset. By measuring the delay of the Raman signal from the second layer (polyethylene terephthalate/PET/Arnite), the net photon migration speeds through Teflon, polythene, Delrin and Nylon were determined. Raman spectra could be obtained from a second layer of PET through Teflon layers up to 7 mm of thickness. The ability to obtain chemical information through layers of diffusely scattering materials has powerful potential for biomedical applications.  相似文献

We are developing optical methods based on near infra-red Raman spectroscopy and fluorescence photon migration for diagnosis and localization of breast cancer. We demonstrate the ability of Raman spectroscopy to classify accurately normal, benign and malignant breast tissues, an important step in developing Raman spectroscopic needle probes as a tool for improving the accuracy of needle biopsy. We also show that photon migration imaging can be used to localize accurately small fluorescent objects imbedded in a thick turbid medium with realistic optical properties, thus demonstrating the potential of this technique for optical imaging.  相似文献

Spatially offset Raman spectroscopy (SORS) using 1064 nm excitation is demonstrated here to detect chemicals through a physical barrier such as a container. This excitation wavelength overcomes the issue of fluorescence from the target chemical, whilst retaining the benefits of the SORS technique for through-barrier detection. These advantages have a wide range of applications in both civilian and military environments.  相似文献

Raman spectroscopy is recognized as a tool for chemometric analysis of biological materials due to the high information content relating to specific physical and chemical qualities of the sample. Thirty cells belonging to two different prostatic cell lines, PNT1A (immortalized normal prostate cell line) and LNCaP (malignant cell line derived from prostate metastases), were mapped using Raman microscopy. A range of spectral preprocessing methods (partial least-squares discriminant analyses (PLSDAs), principal component analyses (PCAs), and adjacent band ratios (ABRs)) were compared for input into linear discriminant analysis to model and classify the two cell lines. PLSDA and ABR were able to correctly classify 100% of cells into benign and malignant groups, while PLSDA correctly classified a greater proportion of individual spectra. PCA was used to image the distribution of various biochemicals inside each cell and confirm differences in composition/distribution between benign and malignant cell lines. This study has demonstrated that PLSDAs and ABRs of Raman data can identify subtle differences between benign and malignant prostatic cells in vitro.  相似文献

The aim of this study was to evaluate the clinical utility of an image-guided Raman endoscopy technique for in vivo differential diagnosis of benign and malignant ulcerous lesions in the stomach. A rapid-acquisition image-guided Raman endoscopy system with 785 nm laser excitation has been developed to acquire in vivo gastric tissue Raman spectra within 0.5 s during clinical gastroscopic examinations. A total of 1102 in vivo Raman spectra were acquired from 71 gastric patients, in which 924 Raman spectra were from normal tissue, 111 Raman spectra were from benign ulcers whereas 67 Raman spectra were from ulcerated adenocarcinoma. There were distinctive spectral differences in Raman spectra among normal mucosa, benign ulcers and malignant ulcers, particularly in the spectral ranges of 800-900, 1000-1100, 1245-1335, 1440-1450 and 1500-1800 cm(-1), which primarily contain signals related to proteins, DNA, lipids and blood. The malignant ulcerous lesions showed Raman signals to be mainly associated with abnormal nuclear activity and decrease in lipids as compared to benign ulcers. Partial least squares-discriminant analysis (PLS-DA) was employed to generate multi-class diagnostic algorithms for classification of Raman spectra of different gastric tissue types. The PLS-DA algorithms together with leave-one tissue site-out, cross validation technique yielded diagnostic sensitivities of 90.8%, 84.7%, 82.1%, and specificities of 93.8%, 94.5%, 95.3%, respectively, for classification of normal mucosa, benign and malignant ulcerous lesions in the stomach. This work demonstrates that image-guided Raman endoscopy technique associated with PLS-DA diagnostic algorithms has for the first time promising clinical potential for rapid, in vivo diagnosis and detection of malignant ulcerous gastric lesions at the molecular level.  相似文献

To explore the pathogenic mineral formation in a huge cardiolith isolated from the left heart atrium of an 80-year-old male patient, field emission scanning electron microscopy (FE-SEM) was used to analyze the topographic microstructure and perform elemental mapping in a cross-section of the cardiac calcified deposit after dissection. Environmental SEM equipped with an energy dispersive X-ray spectrometer (EDS) was also used to investigate the composition and spatial distribution of elements in the cross-section, and fiberoptic Raman spectroscopy was used to reidentify the chemical composition of designated positions. The results indicated that calcium hydroxyapatite and cholesterol were the main components of the cardiac calculus. The plate-like structures of calcium hydroxyapatite were unevenly spread over the cholesterol of the cardiac calculus. The calcium hydroxyapatite-rich area exhibited higher amounts of C, O, P, and Ca elements as well as trace amounts of N, Na, Mg, and Al, whereas the major concentration of C, minor concentrations of N and O, and trace amounts of P and Ca were observed in the cholesterol-rich area. Hypercholesterolemia associated with calcification of this cardiac calculus was proposed. Both FE-SEM and ESEM energy dispersive X-ray microanalyses were performed directly, for the first time, to provide useful information on the microstructural characteristics and spatial distribution of elements on the surface of human cardiac calculi.

Abstract— Near-infrared Fourier transform Raman spectroscopy is an analytical, nondestructive technique that provides information about the molecular structure of the investigated sample. The molecular structure of proteins and lipids differs between neoplastic and normal tissues and therefore Raman spectroscopy has been considered promising for the diagnosis of cancer. We aimed to compare the molecular structure of normal skin, benign and malignant skin lesions by the near-infrared Fourier transform Raman spectroscopy. Biopsies were obtained from the following skin lesions: skin tag, dermatofibroma, seborrhoeic keratosis, actinic keratosis, keratoacan-thoma, basal cell carcinoma, squamous cell carcinoma, nevus intradermal, nevus compositus, dysplastic nevus and lentigo maligna. Control skin was harvested from the vicinity of these lesions. In the Raman spectra, the secondary structure of the proteins was reflected by the amide vibrations of peptide bonds. The principal lipid vibrations were twisting and wagging (CH2) and CH stretching vibrations. Histologically distinguishable lesions showed specific combinations of band changes indicating alterations in the protein conformation and in the molecular structure of the lipids. Histogenetically related lesions (actinic keratosis and sqamous cell carcinoma) produced similar but not identical patterns of spectral changes. Because the examined skin lesions produced reproducible and unique spectra, we suggest that Raman spectroscopy will be useful for diagnosis of skin lesions.  相似文献

Fine needle aspirates (FNAs) of suspicious breast lesions are often used to aid the diagnosis of female breast cancer. Biospectroscopy tools facilitate the acquisition of a biochemical cell fingerprint representative of chemical bonds present in a biological sample. The mid-infrared (IR; 4,000–400 cm−1) is absorbed by the chemical bonds present, allowing one to derive an absorbance spectrum. Complementary to IR spectroscopy, Raman spectroscopy measures the scattering by chemical bonds following excitation by a laser to generate an intensity spectrum. Our objective was to apply these methods to determine whether a biospectroscopy approach could objectively segregate different categories of FNAs. FNAs of breast tissue were collected (n = 48) in a preservative solution and graded into categories by a cytologist as C1 (non-diagnostic), C2 (benign), C3 (suspicious, probably benign) or C5 (malignant) [or C4 (suspicious, probably malignant); no samples falling within this category were identified during the collection period of the study]. Following washing, the cellular material was transferred onto BaF2 (IR-transparent) slides for interrogation by Raman or Fourier-transform IR (FTIR) microspectroscopy. In some cases where sufficient material was obtained, this was transferred to low-E (IR-reflective) glass slides for attenuated total reflection–FTIR spectroscopy. The spectral datasets produced from these techniques required multivariate analysis for data handling. Principal component analysis followed by linear discriminant analysis was performed independently on each of the spectral datasets for only C2, C3 and C5. The resulting scores plots revealed a marked overlap of C2 with C3 and C5, although the latter pair were both significantly segregated (P < 0.001) in the Raman spectra. Good separation was observed between C3 and C5 in all three spectral datasets. Analysis performed on the average spectra showed the presence of three distinct cytological groups. Our findings suggest that biospectroscopy tools coupled with multivariate analysis may support the current FNA tests whilst increasing the sensitivity and associated reliability for improved diagnostics.  相似文献

We have developed a method for using near infrared Raman spectroscopy to quantitatively analyze the histochemical composition of human artery. The main contributors to bands observed in the Raman spectra of normal and atherosclerotic aorta are the proteins collagen and elastin, cholesterol lipids, and calcium hydroxyapatite. The Raman scattering cross-sections of different bands for these components have been determined in order to understand their relative contributions to the Raman spectra of biological tissue. The Raman signal is observed to behave linearly with the concentration of the components, even in a highly scattering medium such as a powder. Using these data, we have developed a linear model that can be used to extract the quantitative contribution of an individual component to the spectrum of a mixture. The model has been applied to several mixtures of known composition of tissue constituents in order to evaluate its precision and accuracy. The calculated fit coefficients from the spectra are in agreement with the measured values within experimental uncertainties. The spectra of different types of atherosclerotic aorta have also been modeled, and we have extracted quantitative information regarding the relative concentration of biological constituents in atherosclerotic aorta.  相似文献
