Abstract
Mass spectra acquired by imaging mass spectrometry (IMS), in particular MALDI imaging of tissue sections, are each normalized by one of: the p-norm of the mass spectrum transformed by applying an exclusion list, the p-norm of the mass spectrum transformed by square rooting the intensity values, the median of the mass spectrum, and the median absolute deviation of the noise level of the mass spectrum.
