摘要: Image cytometry has numerous clinical and research applications is particularly useful in anatomic pathology for the study of malignant lesions. Modern image systems encompass morphometry, densitometry, neural networks, expert systems. Rapid advances technology development user-friendly have provided pathologists with an alternative to flow cytometry, evaluation small or hypocellular specimens. The most common current application DNA analysis, followed by quantitation immunohistochemical staining. Newer uses under active investigation include that may act as diagnostic consultants future. Beyond holds great promise improved tumor classification, screening surveillance high-risk populations, a tool improve ability. This article discusses types analysis systems, specimen preparation, data acquisition, specific organ sites, possible future applications.
