Patients and Material
The dataset acquired as part of our previous study on MIR imaging of
human lymphomas was used [13]. This dataset includes MIR
measurements of six cases of FL and 12 cases of DLBCL (five germinal
centre (GCB) and seven non-germinal centre (non-GCB) subtypes), which
were diagnosed between 2002 and 2012 at the Institute of Pathology,
Neuropathology, and Molecular Pathology, Medical University of
Innsbruck. Reactive (normal) lymph nodes (rLN) served as control. The
study was conducted according to the IHC-GCP guidelines and the
declaration of Helsinki. Ethical approval was obtained from the ethical
committee of the Medical University of Innsbruck (EK-Nr.1213/2017). For
information on initial sample preparation and MIR imaging, please refer
to Willenbacher E et al. (2021) [13].
