Correlations between MRI (a, d), MALDI-MSI (b, e), and haematoxylin and eosin staining (c, f). Examples of the spatial distribution of an ion at m/z 725 (tentatively identified as the lipid species, sodiated sphingomyelin) are shown in the MALDI-MSI (b, e). This species appears to be localised within the viable tumour tissue regions evident in the haematoxylin and eosin staining post-MALDI image acquisition. Correlations are observable, indicated by the brackets which show a high intensity of m/z 725 (e) along with dark blue haematoxylin staining of the nucleated cells within this viable tumour tissue area
