Abstract:
A method is provided including obtaining an infrared (IR) spectrum of a blood plasma sample by analyzing the blood plasma sample by infrared spectroscopy, and based on the infrared spectrum, generating an output indicative of the presence of a solid tumor or a pre-malignant condition. Other applications are also described.

Claim (Index 30):
A system for indicating whether a subject has a solid tumor of a lung of the subject, the system comprising:\n a gradient configured to isolate a blood plasma sample from a peripheral blood sample of the subject; a dryer configured to dry the blood plasma sample; a data processor, configured (i) to analyze an infrared (IR) spectrum of the dried blood plasma sample of the subject by assessing a characteristic of the dried blood plasma sample at at least one wavenumber selected from the group consisting of: 793\u00b14 cm-1, 963\u00b14 cm-1, 997\u00b14 cm-1, 1008\u00b14 cm-1, 1030\u00b14 cm-1, 1048\u00b14 cm-1, 1159\u00b14 cm-1, 1255\u00b14 cm-1, 1555\u00b14 cm-1, and 1681\u00b14 cm-1, and (ii) to compare at the at least one wavenumber (a) the infrared spectrum of the dried blood plasma sample of the subject to (b) an infrared spectrum obtained from a dried blood plasma sample from a person without a solid tumor, to detect a difference between the infrared spectrum of the dried blood plasma sample of the subject and the infrared spectrum obtained from the dried blood plasma sample from the person without a solid tumor; and an output unit, configured to generate an output indicative of the presence of a solid tumor of the lung of the subject, based on the comparing.
