Take a typical mouse fetus imaging for example to clarify the characteristics of MSI-based multi-modal technique
The molecular variations of mouse fetus are revealed by combing the MSI results with other analytical techniques, such as histological features, image segmentation results, 3D-MSI reconstruction, and in vivo imaging information from MRI and CT.
