Stimulating Raman Histology: A novel technology to image fresh tissues in real-time

Stimulating Raman scattering microscopy in biological specimens allows for fast, nondestructive imaging of fresh tissues. The virtual imaging of the tissue using this methodology produces images comparable to standard HE. This webinar will review the applications of this technology in small neurosurgical intraoperative specimens with quick, on-site interpretation, as well as discuss other potential applications. 

Learning Objectives:

• Understand the principles of stimulating Raman scattering microcopy
• Compare and contrast the images acquired in stimulated Raman Histology versus standard HE
• Discuss the current and potential future applications of this technology in surgical pathology
