Description

Ductal carcinoma is characterized by a lump in the breast made up of cancerous cells surrounded by scar tissues caused by cancer. FT-IR microspectroscopy opens the chance for investigating in depth the subtle chemical changes within the tissues. Methods. In this work, we have addressed the composition of invasive ductal carcinoma tissue by FT-IR microspectroscopy. This provides to investigate the in situ chemical composition of tissues at a scale of few microns.In this work, we have addressed the composition of invasive ductal carcinoma tissue by FT-IR microspectroscopy. The most significant changes between cancerous and non-cancerous breast tissues occur at the vibrations of the ester and the DNA phospo-diester groups. This indicates that the phosphorylating processes usually occur in carcinomatous tissue sections.
