摘要
Data analysis from mass spectrometry imaging (MSI) imaging experiments is a very complex task. Most of the software packages devoted to this purpose are designed by the mass spectrometer manufacturers and, thus, are not freely available. Laboratories developing their own MS-imaging sources usually do not have access to the commercial software, and they must rely on the freely available programs. The most recognized ones are BioMap, developed by Novartis under Interactive Data Language (IDL), and Datacube, developed by the Dutch Foundation for Fundamental Research of Matter (FOM-Amolf). These two systems were used here for the analysis of images received from rat brain tissues subjected to morphine influence and their capabilities were compared in terms of ease of use and the quality of obtained results.
