The SpeactraScience system uses a low-power 337 nm nitrogen laser to induce fluorescence in tissue, with normal and abnormal tissue types re-emitting different fluorescence signals. In the future, a semiconductor laser based on gallium nitride may provide a more convenient and compact light source. Credit: SpectraScience.
