Abstract:
There is an urgent need to develop new techniques for diagnosing and monitoring patients with cancer. Fourier Transform Infrared (FTIR) spectroscopy has great potential in early cancer diagnosis, as well as real-time monitoring of cancer progression and chemoresistance. As a non-invasive, simple and convenient method, it can not only distinguish the molecular differences between normal and malignant tissues, but can also be used to characterize different types of cancers. FTIR spectroscopy is also widely used in monitoring tumor cells in response to antitumor drugs, differentiating cells in different growth states, and identifying novel synthetic drugs. In this review article, the applications of FTIR spectroscopy for diagnosing different types of cancers and other work carried out so far are described in detail.
