Toward noncontact macroscopic imaging of multiple cancers using multi‐spectral inelastic scattering detection
Bibliographic record
Abstract
Abstract Here we introduce a Raman spectroscopy approach combining multi‐spectral imaging and a new fluorescence background subtraction technique to image individual Raman peaks in less than 5 seconds over a square field‐of‐view of 1‐centimeter sides with 350 micrometers resolution. First, human data is presented supporting the feasibility of achieving cancer detection with high sensitivity and specificity – in brain, breast, lung, and ovarian/endometrium tissue – using no more than three biochemically interpretable biomarkers associated with the inelastic scattering signal from specific Raman peaks. Second, a proof‐of‐principle study in biological tissue is presented demonstrating the feasibility of detecting a single Raman band – here the CH 2 /CH 3 deformation bands from proteins and lipids – using a conventional multi‐spectral imaging system in combination with the new background removal method. This study paves the way for the development of a new Raman imaging technique that is rapid, label‐free, and wide field.

How this classification was reachedexpand
Full frame distilled prediction
Teacher imitationNot calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. Learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and 10,348 direct Gemma labels. Candidate is the union of thresholded teacher heads; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels or direct frontier model labels.

Machine scores (provisional)
The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.
Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
score_only:v0-immature-baseline · verbatim from the scoring run: score_only means the number may rank works, and no category label ships from itClassification
machine, unvalidatedMachine predicted; a candidate call from one teacher head, not a consensus.
