title: [Application possibilities of chemical imaging in pharmaceutical technology].
abstract: Chemical imaging is a novel analytical method that simultaneously delivers spatial, chemical, structural, and functional information on the dosage forms. Both infrared and Raman spectroscopic imaging may serve as useful nondestructive analytical techniques in the pharmaceutical product development and quality control. Most important application possibilities are reviewed and some studies demonstrate the advantages of the structure exploration. Raman imaging is suitable to understand and control the quality attributes of different dosage forms.
