Fast Detection of Prostate Malignant Tissue by Multipulsed Laser-Induced Breakdown Spectroscopy (LIBS)





 

We evaluate the use of laser-induced breakdown spectroscopy (LIBS) coupled with chemometric methods as a fast and simple technique for identifying diseased tissue in prostate cancer samples.

The experimental setup consisted of a neodymium-doped yttrium aluminum garnet (Nd:YAG) laser in a burst-mode regime, with differing time delays for the spectrometer readings. To improve classification accuracy, principal component analysis #PCA was

coupled with neural analysis (NA), achieving a high identification accuracy of 97 %. It can be concluded that #LIBS has the potential to serve as a technique for the detection and diagnosis of human
