The aim of this study was to investigate the clinical potential of Raman spectroscopy (RS) in detecting oral squamous cell carcinoma (OSCC) in tumor and healthy tissues in surgical resection specimens during surgery. Raman experiments were performed on cryopreserved specimens from patients with OSCC. Univariate and multivariate analysis was performed based on the fingerprint region (700–1800 cm−  1) of the Raman spectra. One hundred thirty-one ex-vivo Raman experiments were performed on 131 surgical resection specimens obtained from 67 patients. The principal component analysis (PCA) and partial least square (PLS) methods with linear discriminant analysis (LDA) were applied on an independent validation dataset. Both models were able to differentiate between the tissue types, but PLS–LDA showed 100% accuracy, sensitivity, and specificity. In this study, Raman measurements of fresh resection tissue specimens demonstrated that OSCC had significantly higher nucleic acid, protein, and several amino acid contents than adjacent healthy tissues. The specific spectral information obtained in this study can be used to develop an in vivo Raman spectroscopic method for the tumor-free resection boundary during surgery.
