الوصف: | Abstract Bulk composition of kidney stones, often analyzed with infrared spectroscopy, plays an essential role in determining the course of treatment for kidney stone disease. Though bulk analysis of kidney stones can hint at the general causes of stone formation, it is necessary to understand kidney stone microstructure to further advance potential treatments that rely on in vivo dissolution of stones rather than surgery. The utility of Raman microscopy is demonstrated for the purpose of studying kidney stone microstructure with chemical maps at ≤ 1 µm scales collected for calcium oxalate, calcium phosphate, uric acid, and struvite stones. Observed microstructures are discussed with respect to kidney stone growth and dissolution with emphasis placed on |
