Investigation of surface-enhanced Raman spectra of oxyhemoglobin for 30 liver cancers and 30 normal persons based on the silver nanofilm was reported. Principal components analysis (PCA) and independent variable T test were employed to develop effective diagnostic algorithms for distinguishing liver cancer form normal. Discriminant analysis was used to evaluate the diagnostic efficiency and the result indicates that SERS spectra of the oxyhemoglobin are obviously different between normal persons and liver cancers. PCA and independent variable T test were employed to get a three-dimensional scatter plot of PC scores for the healthy and cancer groups, and it can be learned that they are distributed in separate areas. By using the method of discriminate analysis, it was fount that the diagnostic algorithm separates the two groups with sensitivity of 96.7% and diagnostic specificity of 90%, the overall diagnostic accuracy was 93.3%. By analyzing the assignations of the SERS bands, it was found that the content of asparagine, tyrosine and phenylalanine in the hemoglobin are significantly lower than healthy people. The results from this exploratory study demonstrate that SERS detection of oxyhemoglobin for liver cancers based on the method of PCA combined with independent variable T test is expected to develop into a new type of liver cancer diagnostic tool.

Oximetry is used to quantify the presence of oxygen in soft tissues. It can be expressed as, for example, tissue oxygen saturation (StO), arterial oxygen saturation (SaO) and pulsatile oxygen saturation (SpO), among others. Non-invasive medical devices are used to estimate (SaO).

Significance: Hyperspectral cameras capture spectral information at each pixel in an image. Acquired spectra can be analyzed to estimate quantities of absorbing and scattering components, but the use of traditional fitting algorithms over megapixel images can be computationally intensive. Deep learning algorithms can be trained to rapidly analyze spectral data and can potentially process hyperspectral camera data in real time.

The NO dioxygenation reaction catalyzed by heme-containing globin proteins is a crucial aerobic detoxification pathway. Accordingly, the second order reaction of NO with oxymyoglobin and oxyhemoglobin has been the focus of a large number of kinetic and spectroscopic studies. Stopped-flow and rapid-freeze-quench (RFQ) measurements have provided evidence for the formation of a Fe(III)-nitrato complex with millisecond lifetime prior to release of the nitrate product, but the temporal resolution of these techniques is insufficient for the characterization of precursor species.

Acute mesenteric ischemia (AMI) is a clinically significant vascular and gastrointestinal condition, which is closely related to the blood supply of the small intestine. Unfortunately, it is still challenging to properly discriminate small intestinal tissues with different degrees of ischemia. In this study, hyperspectral imaging (HSI) was used to construct pseudo-color images of oxygen saturation about small intestinal tissues and to discriminate different degrees of ischemia.

Background: Hyperspectral techniques have aroused great interest in non-invasively measuring periodontal tissue hemodynamics. However, current studies mainly focused on three typical inflammation stages (healthy, gingivitis and periodontitis) and practical approaches for using optical spectroscopy for early and precisely detection of periodontal inflammation at finer disease stages have not been well studied.
Methods: This study provided novel spectroscopic insights into periodontitis at different stages of disease, and developed six simple but physically meaning hemodynamic spectral indices (HSIs) including four spectral absorption depths of oxyhemoglobin ( ), deoxyhemoglobin ( ), total hemoglobin ( ) and tissue water ( ), and two normalized difference indices of oxyhemoglobin( ) and deoxyhemoglobin ( ) from continuum-removal spectra (400-1700 nm) of periodontal tissue collected from 47 systemically healthy subjects over different severities from healthy, gingivitis, slight, moderate to severe periodontitis for early and precision diagnostics of periodontitis.
