Brain tissue characterisation by infrared imaging in a rat glioma model

Abstract: Pathological changes associated with the development of brain tumor were investigated by Fourier transform infrared microspectroscopy (FT-IRM) with high spatial resolution. Using multivariate statistical analysis and imaging, all normal brain structures were discriminated from tumor and surrounding tumor tissues. These structural changes were mainly related to qualitative and quantitative changes in lipids (tumors contain little fat) and were correlated to the degree of myelination, an important factor in seve… Show more

“…Particularly, Fourier transform infrared (FTIR) microspectroscopy has been found to be a technique that is sensitive to molecular composition and molecular conformational changes associated either to administration of drugs or to pathological development, which is not easily detectable by morphological methods. 18 The spatial resolution of this technique offers the possibility of detecting very small amounts of compounds that can be…”

“…These studies were preceded by earlier work from the authors' laboratory on the detection of micrometastases in lymph nodes, 12-14 cervical adeno-and SqCCs, 15 and from other laboratories on the detection of colon cancer, 11,[16][17][18] prostate and breast cancer, 19,20 brain cancers and brain metastases, [21][22][23] as well as a few other organs. 9,24 In addition, similar efforts using Raman spectroscopy, another form of vibrational spectroscopy, have yielded analogous results.…”
