Cardinal v.3 is an open-source software for reproducible analysis of mass spectrometry imaging experiments. A major update from its previous versions, Cardinal v.3 supports most mass spectrometry imaging workflows. Its analytical capabilities include advanced data processing such as mass recalibration, advanced statistical analyses such as single-ion segmentation and rough annotation-based classification, and memory-efficient analyses of large-scale multitissue experiments.
