 Histological type‐specific signal increase in imaging mass spectrometry (IMS) of digested formalin‐fixed paraffin‐embedded (FFPE) tissue microarrays (TMA). (a) Ion imaging revealed a peak with significantly strong signal intensity in well‐differentiated adenocarcinoma at an m/z of 1554.6. (b) Ion imaging revealed a peak with significantly strong signal intensity in moderately differentiated adenocarcinoma at an m/z of 692.2. (c) Ion imaging revealed a peak with significantly strong signal intensity in poorly differentiated adenocarcinoma at m/z 1475.8. Values are represented as mean ± SD (n = 3). *P <0.05, †P <0.05.
