Abstract

There are differences in molecular structure between cancer, ulcer and normal tissue. They have their own specific absorb structures, which result in the highly specificity in the absorption of radiation. When laser light with specific wavelength irradiates on cancer or normal tissue, the inherent fluorescence of them can be stimulated. With the help of specific instrument, the curve of spectrum can be drawn. The various fluorescence peak value of cancerous and normal tissue can be used to differentiate between the two. The instruments used include some kinds of the most advanced technologies in nowadays, such as current laser, photoelectron, computer, microptic rapid spectrum analysis.
