Since the discovery of the inelastic scattering of light, ie, the so-called Raman effect, 1
Raman spectroscopy has become an attractive tool in a high number of research fields …

Multimodal non-linear microscopy combining coherent anti-Stokes Raman scattering,
second harmonic generation, and two-photon excited fluorescence has proved to be a …

Significance: Although the clinical potential for Raman spectroscopy (RS) has been
anticipated for decades, it has only recently been used in neurosurgery. Still, few devices …

Modern optical and spectral technologies represent powerful approaches for a molecular
characterization of tissues enabling delineating pathological tissues but also a label-free …

The rising incidence of head and neck cancer represents a serious global health challenge,
requiring more accurate diagnosis and innovative surgical approaches. Multimodal …

Breast conserving surgery (BCS) offering similar surgical outcomes as mastectomy while
