Data collection for diagnosis and prognosis of pathologies represent critical information for the physicians and surgeons to make a decision for the subsequent step of treatment and uptake of the patients. Nowadays, tumour grading is still largely performed through microscopic examination of biopsies using histology and immunohistochemistry techniques. These examinations remain difficult especially for data reading (leading to a more or less important variability inter-exam) or are targeted to certain selected markers. These exams are complicated if the surgeons need the information during surgery. Using conventional tools, it is still remains difficult for surgeons to determine pathological tissues and excision margins. There is a need to develop a totally novel instrument usable in the operating room and allowing the collection of information in real time to obtain a fast and precise diagnosis and prognosis for a personalized treatment. SpiderMass is such novel guided surgery instrument. SpiderMass is an infrared (IR) AP MALDI MS system with a remote ion source for in-vivo real-time conditions. By laser excitation of endogenous water molecules it was demonstrated that in-vivo real-time analysis of molecular signatures from tissue surfaces, such as human skin for example, could be achieved, allowing the detection of metabolites and lipids with masses up to 2000 amu (1 amu = 1 Da = 1 u). In the SpiderMass system, an optic fiber guides the IR laser beam to a handpiece designed for manually scanning the tissue surface. The gas phase ions produced by the laser irradiation are transferred through a thin, flexible tube by aspiration to the atmospheric pressure inlet of an MS instrument, yielding a ‘spectral fingerprint’ of the tissue’s metabolome in real-time
