Biomedical spectroscopy

<p>Biomedical spectroscopy is a multidisciplinary research field involving <a href="/facts/Spectroscopy/mj71FuNK">spectroscopic</a> tools for applications in the field of biomedical science. Vibrational spectroscopy such as <a href="/facts/Raman_spectroscopy/XY063k29">Raman</a> or <a href="/facts/Infrared_spectroscopy/u1Hzx617">infrared spectroscopy</a>  is used to determine the chemical composition of a material based on detection of vibrational modes of constituent molecules. Some spectroscopic methods are routinely used in clinical settings for diagnosis of disease; an example is <a href="/facts/Magnetic_resonance_imaging/Vh9yG9qq">Magnetic resonance imaging</a> (MRI). <a href="/facts/Fourier_transform_infrared_spectroscopy/G9UscTuA">Fourier transform infrared</a> (FTIR) spectroscopic imaging is a form of chemical imaging for which the contrast is provided by composition of the material.
