Cartaxo,Sidney Bandeira; Santos,Ivan Dunshee de Abranches Oliveira; Bitar,Renata; Oliveira,Andréa Fernandes; Ferreira,Lydia MasakoCutaneous melanoma is the most aggressive type of skin cancer and Ft-Raman spectroscopy has been studied as a potential method that could be a real alternative for early diagnosis of neoplasms. PURPOSE: To qualify the spectral FT-Raman data, in order to differentiate cutaneous melanoma and pigmented nevus. METHODS: For this study, 10 samples of cutaneous melanoma, 9 samples of pigmented nevi, and 10 samples of ...
Differential diagnosis in primary and metastatic cutaneous melanoma by FT-Raman...
Oliveira,Andrea Fernandes de; Santos,Ivan Dunshee de Abranches Oliveira; Cartaxo,Sidney Bandeira; Bitar,Renata AndradePURPOSE: To qualify the FT-Raman spectral data of primary and metastatic cutaneous melanoma in order to obtain a differential diagnosis. METHODS: Ten normal human skin samples without any clinical or histopathological alterations, ten cutaneous melanoma fragments, and nine lymph node metastasis samples were used; 105, 140 and 126 spectra were obtained respectively. Each sample was divided into 2 or 3 fragments ...
