In this report, several applications of near-infrared microspectroscopy are illustrated using unmodified commercial instrumentation. The principal advantage of near-infrared microspectroscopy is the ability to analyze small samples which are totally absorbing in the mid-infrared region. Near-infrared analysis is shown to yield useful structural information about several different types of samples. Examples from the fields of materials science, single crystals, forensics and biological science are illustrated, and some tentative band assignments are made.

AbstractOptical diagnosis techniques are gaining validity due to their competitive advantages including safety and functionality. These methods probe the tissue using light in the red to near-infrared region that shows relatively high penetration in biological tissues. The reflected light which is controlled by tissue absorption and scattering parameters can provide significant information about its pathology. In the present work, a method for identifying different types of tumors in human brain, breast and uterus based on their absorption and scattering characteristics in the red to near-infrared spectra is proposed. The classification method depends on studying the red to near-infrared light diffusion through the examined tissues using Monte-Carlo simulation and finite element solution of the light diffusion equation. The obtained tissue reflectance profiles, optical fluence rate distribution and absorbed faction in each tumor type show different characteristics along the selected wavelengths. The variation in these three features can be considered as an alternative approach of medical diagnosis or can assist with other conventional diagnosis methods.
