Surgery, as the preferred choice of treatment, includes the selection of adequate resection margins to avoid local recurrences due to minimal residual disease. The presence of functionally vital structures can complicate the choice of resection margins. Spectral analysis of tissue samples in combination with chemometric models constitutes a promising approach for more efficient and precise tumour margin identification. Additionally, this technique provides a real-time tumour identification approach not only for intraoperative application but also during endoscopic diagnosis of tumours in hollow organs. The combination of near-infrared and mid-infrared spectroscopy has advantages compared to individual methods for the clinical implementation of this technique as a diagnostic tool.en620 Ingenieurwissenschaften und zugeordnete Tätigkeitenmid-infrared spectroscopynear-infrared spectroscopyFTIR absorbancediffuse reflectionsynergy effectfibre probejoint data analysiscancer diagnosticsArticle2020-12-181424-8220
