Abstract

A method for determining the presence of malignancy disease in a subject person includes obtaining a test sample of blood plasma from the person, measuring intensities of Raman scattering from the plasma at frequencies in the frequency shift range between 1000 cm.sup.-1 and 1600 cm.sup.-1, and comparing the intensities to intensities of Raman scattering, at comparable frequencies, from normal human plasma.
