Abstract

Proteomic profiling based on mass spectrometry (ms) is an important tool for studies at the protein and peptide level. Thereby, the identification of relevant masses for a specific kind of disease, discriminating classification models as well as a reliable visualization is complicated. For the analysis of tissue sections the new technique of MALDI-Imaging has been introduced, which results in new data analysis challenges. Here we present a method for the analysis and visualization of MALDI Imaging spectra applied on a clinical cancer data set.
