Raman meets Medicine — Raman spectroscopy a powerful toolin Biophotonics

摘要

Biophotonics is a new and highly interdisciplinary scientific discipline comprising the application of light (i.e. innovative photonic tools) in life sciences. It is non exaggerated to say Biophotonics is on the way to solve the most important problems in biomedicine. In particular Raman microspectroscopy allows one to derive detailed and specific information on a molecular level which other photonic methods methods can only provide by a limited extent. Here we will present latest results of our own research dealing with the application and development of innovative Raman spectroscopic techniques for biomedical applications.
