Official Title: Development of a Novel, Safe Method for the Non-invasive Assessment of Human Bone Quality, In Vivo, Using Spatially Offset Raman Spectroscopy

Brief Summary: In this study spatially offset Raman spectroscopy (SORS), which allows the collection of Raman spectra through turbid media, is being applied to collect Raman spectra of bone. The principal aim to find ways to use Raman spectroscopy to assess bone quality in vivo.
