Morphologically Friendly Tissue Imaging
- 總結
- Researchers at Purdue University have developed a novel, morphologically friendly method for DESI-MS tissue imaging. The use of processing chemicals that preserve native tissue structures, instead of destroying them, expands the applications of DESI-MS to tissue imaging. DESI-MS has been used in real time to help surgeons decide how much tissue to take during cancer removal procedures. This new morphologically friendly procedure allows a facile means to distinguish between cancerous and healthy tissues.

- *Abstract
-
- *Background
- Imaging mass spectrometry is currently in the translational phase as a tool in medical histopathology and offers a capability of mapping drugs, metabolites, lipids, peptides, and proteins without the need for labeling. Currently, a primary limitation preventing good correlational analysis is the use of chemicals that destroy native tissue structures.
