Congratulation to Chima Robert, Sara Miller and Keith Gordon who, with Otago medical researchers, recently published a paper entitled “Molecular monitoring of glioblastoma’s immunogenicity using a combination of Raman spectroscopy and chemometrics” Spectrochimica Acta A (2021) 252 119534 https://doi.org/10.1016/j.saa.2021.119534
This study explores how you can use Raman spectroscopy to detect glioma associated neuroinflammation caused by molecular differences. Glioma is when the cancer cells are fired up to rapidly replicate thus disseminating into the normal brain tissue and leading to tumour recurrence which is undesirable. Raman spectroscopy allows one ot see these dangerously active cells.
