Raman spectroscopy combined with multivariate statistical algorithms for the simultaneous screening of cervical and breast cancers

Breast and cervical cancers are becoming the leading causes of death among women worldwide, but current diagnostic methods have many drawbacks, such as being time-consuming and high cost. Raman spectroscopy, as a rapid, reliable, and non-destructive spectroscopic detection technique, has achieved many breakthrough results in the screening and prognosis of various cancer tumors. Therefore, in this study, Raman spectroscopy technology was used to diagnose breast cancer and cervical cancer. A total of 225 spectra were recorded from 87 patients with cervical cancer, 60 patients with breast cancer, and 78 healthy individuals. The obvious difference in Raman spectrum between the three groups was mainly shown at 809 cm
