Abstract
The invention relates to methods for processing ion-spectrometric measurement signal data which are recorded spatially resolved across a two-dimensional sample, comprising: —providing the measurement signal data which have a plurality of measurement signal histograms, where a histogram contains a measurement signal tuple with intensity dimension (J), mass dimension (m), and collision cross-section dimension (σ), or quantities derived therefrom; —specifying first and second selections of ionic species for the sample, whose presence in histograms is detectable and distinguishable using the collision cross-section dimension or proxy; —determining the spatially resolved content of ionic species from the first and second selections in histograms of the finite areas (A), and computing the various contents to form spatially resolved content scores (G); and—labeling the sample with the content scores (G). The invention also relates to methods for acquiring and processing ion-spectrometric measurement signal data, and ion mobility-mass spectrometers.
