Poster — Thur Eve — 09: Effects of Small Sample Size on Diffuse Reflectance Spectroscopy for the Identification of Brain Tumours
Abstract
An optical system using diffuse reflectance spectroscopy (DRS) and time‐resolved laser induced fluorescence spectroscopy (TR‐LIFS) is being developed to identify surgical margins during brain tumour resection. Since initial trials will be performed ex vivo on small samples, we investigated our ability to perform DRS for these small sample volumes. We examined both the effects of decreasing sample volume on the DRS signal and decreasing probe …
