    Abstract

    Many tumors display significant cellular heterogeneity as well as molecular heterogeneity. Sensitive biomarkers that differentiate between diagnostically challenging tumors must contend with this heterogeneity. Mass spectrometry-based molecular histology of a patient series of heterogeneous, microscopically identical bone tumors highlighted the tumor cell types that could be characterized by a single profile and led to the identification of specific peptides that differentiate between the tumors.
