Paper Abstract

Laser-Induced-Autofluorescence (LIAF), White-Light-Remission (WLR) and Electrical-Impedance-Measurement (EIM) in combination with principal component analysis were used at first time for differentiation benign from malignant prostatic tissue in vitro. The used complex statistical processing of the data has shown a differentiation of benign and malignant prostatic tissue with a sensitivity of 93.8% and a specificity of 92.4%.
