Raman spectroscopy’s potential to identify diseased cartilage in osteoarthritis

A group of researchers and clinicians at University College London, Royal Veterinary College and Charing Cross Hospital , led by Dr Riana Gaifulina, have demonstrated that Raman spectroscopy could determine the grade of cartilage erosion and overall osteoarthritis disease state. This could lead to an earlier identification and treatment of osteoarthritic degeneration.
