Comparing the spectrum obtained from the healthy liver sample and the laser treated liver sample, significant differences in the metabolic profile could be observed. In the healthy liver sample, there is a significant presence of lipid signals observed at 0.9 ppm (CH3), 1.3 ppm (CH2) n and 5.33 ppm (CH = CH). However, these intense lipid signals were not observed when the diseased liver was treated with the laser. In the spectrum of the liver treated with the laser can be observed the increase of the signal strength of the acetate, at 1.9 ppm. This signal was present in the healthy liver, but increased significantly after treatment. After laser treatment, the observed profile showed differences in the choline, phosphocholine, glycerophosphocholine,
