Research Abstract |
Cancer diagnostic system using hyperspectral imaging technique was newly developed. In paticular, melanoma diagnosis support system suitable for clinical field was newly developed and its practicality was verifyed. The system succeed in collecting the 200 cases without a trouble and achieved high accuracy (over 90% in sensitivity and specificity). Hyperspectral imaging system for endscopy was also developed and verifyed by animal experiment. It was confirmed that the system can measure spectra in a digestive tract. Clinical test in Swedish area is planned from now on aiming at the global launch of the melanoma diagnosis device.
