Detection of peritoneal, ovarian, and bowel endometriosis using FTIR spectroscopy and machine learning

doi:10.1016/j.saa.2025.127242 ·PMID:41308317

This study evaluated the diagnostic potential of Fourier-transform infrared (FTIR) spectroscopy combined with machine learning for the detection of ovarian, bowel, and peritoneal endometriosis. The Boruta algorithm was applied to identify t…

Correlation between endometriomas volume and Raman spectra. Attempting to use Raman spectroscopy in the diagnosis of endometrioma

doi:10.1016/j.saa.2022.121119 ·PMID:35305519

The formation of the uterus lining, i.e. the endometrium, outside the uterus (ex. in the abdominal cavity,ovaries,or anywhere in the body) is called endometriosis. The presence of endometrial tissue present in the ovaries, thickens after me…

Diagnosis of endometriosis using endometrioma volume and vibrational spectroscopy with multivariate methods as a noninvasive method

doi:10.1016/j.saa.2021.120246 ·PMID:34371315

Endometriomas are typically an advanced form of endometriosis that leads to the formation of scar tissue, adhesions, and an inflammatory reaction. There is no certain serum marker for the diagnosis of endometriosis. This study aims to resea…

Vibrational characterization of granulosa cells from patients affected by unilateral ovarian endometriosis: New insights from infrared and Raman microspectroscopy

doi:10.1016/j.saa.2018.12.054 ·PMID:30639914

Endometriosis is a chronic gynaecological disease characterised by the presence of endometrial cells in extra-uterine regions. One of the main factors impacting on the fertility of women affected by endometriosis is the poor oocyte quality.…
