ABSTRACT:
A machine-based method for collecting and interpreting quantitative data on cells and tissues so that a diagnosis will obtain as to the existence or non-existence of disease in an human. Vibrational spectroscopy is used and the spectra generated by such spectroscopy are compared with stored spectra to provide whether cells or tissues are diseased, and if diseased to what degree. It, therefore, is possible to provide a basis for immediate diagnostic decisions for patients and physicians, leading in turn to immediate implementation of next-step procedures and treatment all in one visit to the doctor's office. This means that patients and the examining clinician can know almost instantly whether or not the cells or tissue examined are normal or diseased, and the level of disease present if found. The advantages of bringing the diagnostic pathology service directly into the doctor's office include immediate relief to the patient's concern about health as well as immediate clarification of what needs to be done next in order to treat the disease that is present, and include any other actions that are necessary. The need for biopsies to obtain desired information on the existence or non-existence of disease is obviated. That is, them is a rapid identification of the area of tissue that is affected by disease prior to obtaining biopsies. This makes it possible to apply a single standard of diagnostic accuracy anywhere in the world, independent of the local availability of pathologists or other professionals.
