  2. Fourier-transform infrared spectroscopy - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Fourier-transform_infrared...

    Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy (FTIR) [1] is a technique used to obtain an infrared spectrum of absorption or emission of a solid, liquid, or gas. An FTIR spectrometer simultaneously collects high-resolution spectral data over a wide spectral range.

  3. List of cancer mortality rates in the United States - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_cancer_mortality...

    Cancer mortality rates are determined by the relationship of a population's health and lifestyle with their healthcare system. In the United States during 2013–2017, the age-adjusted mortality rate for all types of cancer was 189.5/100,000 for males, and 135.7/100,000 for females. [ 1 ]

    While it is essential to detect breast cancer early to reduce the death rate there may be already more than 10,000,000 cells in breast cancer when it can be observed by x-ray mammograms. however, the IR Spectrum proposed by Szu et al seems to be more promising in detecting breast cancer cells several months ahead of a mammogram.

  5. List of countries by cancer rate - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_countries_by...

    In many developing countries cancer incidence, insofar as this can be measured, appears much lower, most likely because of the higher death rates due to infectious disease or injury. With the increased control over malaria and tuberculosis in some Third World countries, incidence of cancer is expected to rise.

  6. Geology applications of Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Geology_applications_of...

    FTIR mode Sample preparation Schematic diagram Transmission FTIR: Transmission mode is the most widely used FTIR technique in geoscience due to its high analysis speed and cost-efficient characteristics. [4] The sample, either a rock or a mineral, is cut into a block and polished on both sides until a thin (typically 300 to 15 μm) wafer is ...

  7. Cancer - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cancer

    Three measures of global cancer mortality from 1990 to 2017 [202] Survival rates vary by cancer type and by the stage at which it is diagnosed, ranging from majority survival to complete mortality five years after diagnosis. Once a cancer has metastasized, prognosis normally becomes much worse.

  8. Two-dimensional infrared spectroscopy - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Two-dimensional_infrared...

    There are two main approaches to two-dimensional spectroscopy, the Fourier-transform method, in which the data is collected in the time-domain and then Fourier-transformed to obtain a frequency-frequency 2D correlation spectrum, and the frequency domain approach in which all the data is collected directly in the frequency domain.

  9. Epidemiology of cancer - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Epidemiology_of_cancer

    The leading cause of death in both males and females is lung cancer, which contributes to 26.8% of all cancer deaths. Statistics indicate that between the ages of 20 and 50 years, the incidence rate of cancer is higher amongst women whereas after 50 years of age, the incidence rate increases in men.
