System and method of using ultrafast Raman spectroscopy and an ablative laser for quasi-real time removal of skin cancer and other anomalous tissues with clear tissue margins formed by array created displays

Resonance Raman scatter is used to differentiate in quasi-real time (QRT) anomalous tissue from adjacent normal tissue. The fingerprint generated from the tissue by a 1 second pulse of 532 nm emission for approximately one second is collected and is relayed by fiber-optic to a computerized controller that determines whether the target tissue is anomalous or normal. If anomalous it is ablated. This is performed by a pattern of Resonance Raman diagnostic emission and diagnostic sensor fibers. This diagnostic / therapeutic pattern of fibers can be moved by a joystick or robotically controlled. The data received by the computer is examined instantly, and should the site be diagnosed as anomalous, the optical biopsy / ablation is repeated immediately and repeated until the site is read as normal. Novel arrays of the diagnostic and therapeutic energies ensure a 3D anomalous tissue free zone around the removal site.
