Optical and Spectroscopic Techniques for Biomedical Applications

This book highlights recent developments and up-to-date information on the various optical and spectroscopic techniques in bioscience research laboratories across the world for their clinical, biomedical and biological applications. Analytical techniques play a crucial role in clinical and biological researches which is important to study and understand various aspects of human life, from disease detection to drug development. Use and advancements in these optical and spectroscopic techniques allow scientists, doctors and researchers to analyze molecules in living specimens and hence to develop and validate analytical methods for drug development and discovery, disease diagnosis and monitoring, biochemical research, toxicology and forensic science, and even discover tumor markers. The book focuses on the recent technological innovations and developments of analytical techniques applied Raman spectroscopy, FTIR, UV-Vis spectroscopy, high resolution laser spectrometry, X-rays and imaging techniques, data analysis using AI and machine learning, along with the latest examples of clinical, biomedical and biological applications relevant in academia and industries. It will be beneficial to researchers from various branches of biomedical science and technology, and it will point them to modern techniques coupled with AI and machine learning techniques.
