Differentiation of HaCaT cell and melanocyte from their malignant counterparts using micro‐Raman spectroscopy guided by confocal imaging

Skin cancer is the most common type of cancer in humans. Current techniques for identifying normal and neoplastic tissues are either destructive or not sensitive and specific enough. Raman spectroscopy and confocal imaging may obviate many limitations of existing methods by providing noninvasive, high‐resolution, and real‐time morphological and biochemical analysis of living tissues and cells.
