Unlike traditional imaging techniques such as autoradiography, magnetic resonance imaging or positron emission tomography, mass spectrometry imaging (MSI) permits the label-free

study of several compounds of interest simultaneously on the same tissue section. However, the difficulty of obtaining an absolute quantification of experimental data remains one of MSI’s major

disadvantages. Several methods are described in literature in order to address this issue, but none have universal applications. This quantitative MSI feasibility study investigates robustness and

reproducibility in whole-body imaging while taking pharmacokinetic problems into account. Using the example of a propranolol distribution study on whole-body, we report below the methodology

intended to respond to the main obstacles in quantification through MALDI (Matrix-Assisted Laser Desorption/Ionization) imaging. These difficulties are as follows: first, the high dependence of

the detected signal on the matrix deposition/properties and its extraction capacity; secondly, the MALDI ionization yield of specific target molecules; and lastly, the ion suppression effect on tissue.
