Discrimination of parotid neoplasms from the normal parotid gland by use of Raman spectroscopy and support vector machine.

Preoperative diagnosis of neoplasms in the parotid gland is essential for successful surgical treatment. The purpose of this study is to apply Raman spectroscopy in order to distinguish the spectral differences between pleomorphic adenoma and Warthin tumor from that of normal parotid gland tissues....
