Cholangiocarcinoma (CCA) is highly prevalent in the northeastern region of Thailand. Current diagnostic methods for CCA are often expensive, time-consuming, and require medical professionals. Thus, there is a need for a simple and low-cost CCA screening method. This work developed a rapid label-free technique by Raman spectroscopy combined with the multivariate statistical methods of principal component analysis and linear discriminant analysis (PCA-LDA), aiming to analyze and classify between CCA (n = 30) and healthy (n = 30) serum specimens. The model's classification performance was validated using k-fold cross validation (k = 5). Serum levels of cholesterol (548, 700 cm-1), tryptophan (878 cm-1), and amide III (1248,1265 cm-1) were found to be statistically significantly higher in the CCA patients, whereas serum beta-carotene (1158, 1524 cm-1) levels were significantly lower. The peak heights of these identified Raman marker bands were input into an LDA model, achieving a cross-validated diagnostic sensitivity and specificity of 71.33% and 90.00% in distinguishing the CCA from healthy specimens. The PCA-LDA technique provided a higher cross-validated sensitivity and specificity of 86.67% and 96.67%. To conclude, this work demonstrated the feasibility of using Raman spectroscopy combined with PCA-LDA as a helpful tool for cholangiocarcinoma serum-based screening.
