Analysis of colorectal adenocarcinoma tissue samples by DESI mass spectrometry imaging

Ex vivo colorectal adenocarcinoma samples were analysed by desorption electrospray ionisation using an Orbitrap mass spectrometer. The samples were analysed in negative mode over the m/z range 600-1000. Some of the samples presented in this dataset were analysed as part of [1]. The study makes available imzML files of profile and centroid mode data, as well as low- and high- resolution optical image files of H&E-stained sections. These files can be found in the zip file named after each tissue section.
