Abstract

Biopsy is the recommended standard for pathological diagnosis of liver carcinoma. However, this method usually requires sectioning and staining, and well-trained pathologists to interpret tissue images. Here, we utilize Raman spectroscopy to study human hepatic tissue samples, developing and validating a workflow for in vitro and intraoperative pathological diagnosis of liver cancer. We distinguish carcinoma tissues from adjacent non-tumour tissues in a rapid, non-disruptive, and label-free manner by using Raman spectroscopy combined with deep learning, which is validated by tissue metabolomics. This technique allows for detailed pathological identification of the cancer tissues, including subtype, differentiation grade, and tumour stage. 2D/3D Raman images of unprocessed human tissue slices with submicrometric resolution are also acquired based on visualization of molecular composition, which could assist in tumour boundary recognition and clinicopathologic diagnosis. Lastly, the potential for a portable handheld Raman system is illustrated during surgery for real-time intraoperative human liver cancer diagnosis.

About these checks

Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.

Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.

Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
