Preclinical Studies of Mass Spectrometry Techniques in Skin Cancer Management

Aim of the study

The research described in this thesis aims to evaluate the potential of MALDI-MSI as a technology for metabolomic characterization and clinical diagnosis of KC by comparison with histopathology.

Additionally, it seeks to establish a foundation for the future clinical implementation of a LA-REIMS system for real-time intraoperative tissue classification, thereby bridging the gap between molecular diagnostics and clinical treatment. This could provide a two-in-one approach combining diagnosis and treatment.

Research objectives

  1. Accurately identify SCC and BCC regions in tissue sections using MALDI-MSI and ML
  2. Characterize the metabolic profiles of SCC and BCC
  3. Development of a LA-REIMS system for imaging and treatment of KC
