Abstract

Currently, a large number of stored tissue samples are unavailable for spectroscopic study without the time consuming and destructive process of paraffin removal. Instead, a structurally sensitive technique, sum frequency generation, and a chemically sensitive technique, coherent anti-Stokes Raman scattering enables imaging through the paraffin. This method is demonstrated by imaging collagen in mouse tibia. We introduce a statistical method for separating images by quality and, with the aid of machine learning, distinguish osteoporotic and healthy bone. This method has the potential to verify the results of previous studies and reduce new sample production by allowing retesting results with spectroscopy.
