September 2016Is Osteoporosis the Obesity of Bone? Correlation between two mass spectrometry imaging methods is supposed to reveal insights into the role of lipids in the disease state of osteoporosis. In cooperation with Prof Wenisch‘s group from veterinary antatomy and Prof Spengler‘s group from analytical chemistry, the identity and distribution of lipids in native bone sections of osteoporotic and control donors is determined and compared by ToF-SIMS & MALDI. The picture shows an exemplary measurement of a control donor.
