Advances in the diagnosis of bladder cancer based on Raman spectroscopy / 中华泌尿外科杂志

ABSTRACT

Bladder cancer is one of the common tumors of urinary system. Early detection and treatment can reduce the recurrence rate and mortality. Currently, it is difficult to balance the diagnostic specificity and sensitivity of traditional diagnostic methods. However, Raman spectroscopy, as a molecular diagnostic technology, can reveal the difference between normal urinary tract epithelial tissue and urinary tract epithelial cell carcinoma of the bladder at the molecular level, which has the characteristics of faster and more accurate diagnosis compared with traditional diagnostic techniques. This paper reviews the research progress of Raman spectroscopy in the diagnosis of bladder cancer.
