PCA based polarized fluorescence study for detecting human cervical dysplasia

The two highest principal components of fluorescence spectra in visible region obtained, using Xenon lamp as an excitation source of normal and dysplastic human cervical tissues are analyzed using scatter plots and probability density functions. These yield significant differences between the tissue types.
