TITLE=Perspective: Raman spectroscopy for detection and management of diseases affecting the nervous system JOURNAL=Frontiers in Veterinary Science VOLUME=Volume 11 - 2024 YEAR=2024 URL=https://www.frontiersin.org/journals/veterinary-science/articles/10.3389/fvets.2024.1468326 DOI=10.3389/fvets.2024.1468326 ISSN=2297-1769 ABSTRACT=Raman spectroscopy (RS) is used increasingly for disease detection, including diseases of the nervous system (CNS). This Perspective presents RS basics and how it has been applied to disease detection. Research that focused on using a novel Raman-based technology—Rametrix® Molecular Urinalysis (RMU)—for systemic disease detection is presented, demonstrated by an example of how the RS/RMU technology could be used for detection and management of diseases of the CNS in companion animals.
