title: Real-time monitoring of blood using coherent anti-Stokes Raman spectroscopy.
abstract: We demonstrate a real-time method of measuring the vibrational Raman spectrum of whole blood. Using a novel coherent Raman technique, we record the vibrational spectrum of the red blood cells from picoliters in blood in milliseconds. This method will allow real-time in vivo blood monitoring.
