Real-Time Intraoperative Surface-Enhanced Raman Spectroscopy-Guided Thermosurgical Eradication of Residual Microtumors in Orthotopic Breast Cancer
Yu Wen, Vinh X. Truong, Ming Li
Abstract
experiments confirm complete eradication of microtumors without local recurrence and with a 100% tumor-free survivability. This work therefore offers a robust platform for real-time intraoperative eradication of residual microtumors with significant improvement of surgical outcomes.
