A recent study conducted by researchers at Charles University of Prague explored the efficacy of blood plasma spectroscopy for early liver cancer diagnostics in obese patients. The study found that the usage of spectroscopic methods, such as infrared spectroscopy and Raman spectroscopy, showed promising results in detecting liver cancer in obese patients. The combined classification model based on all spectroscopic methods achieved a sensitivity of 0.810 and a specificity of 0.857, making it a potentially effective diagnostic tool for patients who are not examinable by liver ultrasonography. This research provides new insights into liver cancer screening methods and may have implications for future diagnostic approaches. [Extracted from the article] |
