| Abstract: | Multimodal imaging (MMI) has emerged as a powerful tool in clinical research, combining different imaging modes to acquire comprehensive information and enabling scientists and surgeons to study tissue identification, localization, metabolic activity, and molecular discovery, thus aiding in disease progression analysis. While multimodal instruments are gaining popularity, challenges such as non-standardized characteristics, custom software, inadequate commercial support, and integration issues with other instruments need to be addressed. The field of multimodal imaging or multiplexed imaging allows for simultaneous signal reproduction from multiple imaging strategies. Intraoperatively, MMI can be integrated into frameless stereotactic surgery. Recent developments in medical imaging modalities such as magnetic resonance imaging (MRI), and Positron Emission Topography (PET) have brought new perspectives to multimodal imaging, enabling early cancer detection, molecular tracking, and real-time progression monitoring. Despite the evidence supporting the role of MMI in surgical decision-making, there is a need for comprehensive studies to validate and perform integration at the intersection of multiple imaging technologies. They were integrating mass spectrometry-based technologies (e.g., imaging mass spectrometry (IMS), imaging mass cytometry (IMC), and Ion mobility mass spectrometry ((IM-IM) with medical imaging modalities, offering promising avenues for molecular discovery and clinical applications. This review emphasizes the potential of multi-omics approaches in tissue mapping using MMI integrated into desorption electrospray ionization (DESI) and matrix-assisted laser desorption ionization (MALDI), allowing for sequential analyses of the same section. By addressing existing knowledge gaps, this review encourages future research endeavors toward multi-omics approaches, providing a roadmap for future research and enhancing the value of MMI in molecular pathology for diagnosis.
