Abstract
BACKGROUND: Fourier transform infrared (FTIR) spectroscopy has shown its unique advantages in distinguishing cancerous tissue from normal one. The aim of this study was to establish a quick and accurate diagnostic method of FTIR spectroscopy to differentiate malignancies from benign breast tissues intraoperatively. MATERIALS AND METHODS: In this study, a total of 100 breast tissue samples obtained from 100 patients were taken on surgery. All tissue samples were scanned for spectra intraoperatively before being processed for histopathological diagnosis. Standard normal variate (SNV) method was adopted to reduce scatter effects. Support vector machine (SVM) classification was used to discriminate spectra between malignant and benign breast tissues. Leave-one-out cross validation (LOOCV) was used to evaluate the discrimination. RESULTS: According to histopathological examination, 50 cases were diagnosed as fibroadenoma and 50 cases as invasive ductal carcinoma. The results of SVM algorithm showed that the sensitivity, specificity and accuracy rate of this method are 90.0%, 98.0% and 94.0%, respectively. CONCLUSIONS: FTIR spectroscopy technique in combination with SVM classification could be an accurate, rapid and objective tool to differentiate malignant from benign tumors during operation. Our studies establish the feasibility of FTIR spectroscopy with chemometrics method to guide surgeons during the surgery as an effective supplement for pathological diagnosis on frozen section.
