Comparison of DNA histograms by standard flow cytometry and image cytometry on sections in Barrett's adenocarcinoma
BACKGROUND The purpose of this study was to compare DNA histograms obtained by standard flow cytometry (FC) and high fidelity image cytometry on sections (ICS) in normal gastrointestinal mucosa and Barrett's adenocarcinoma (BAC). METHODS Archival formalin-fixed paraffin-embedded tissue blocks of 10 normal controls from 10 subjects and 42 BAC tissues from 17 patients were examined. DNA FC was ...
متن کاملEvaluation of DNA-content of Peritoneal Lavage Cells by Flow Cytometry in Patients with Gasteric Cancer
Background & Aims: Gastric cancer is the second common cancer in Iran and it has unfortunately no diagnostic signs in early stages. Considering the role of genetic and environmental factors in the development of gastric cancer, this study aimed at evaluating DNA-content of stomach cells in patients with gastric cancer in order to find a reliable index for prediction of disease prognosis and pro...
متن کاملDiagnostic DNA-Flow- vs. -Image-Cytometry in Effusion Cytology
AIMS To determine the sensitivity and specificity of flow- and image-cytometry for the detection of DNA-aneuploidy as a marker for malignant cells in effusions. METHODS 200 effusions (80 tumor cell-positive, 74 negative and 46 cytologically equivocal) were stained with DAPI-SR for DNA-flow- and with Feulgen-Pararosaniline for -image-cytometry. They were measured using a PAS-flow-cytometer and...
متن کاملCorrelation of Grade of Urothelial Cell Carcinomas and DNA Histogram Features Assessed by Flow Cytometry and Automated Image Cytometry
OBJECTIVE To analyse how DNA ploidy and S-phase fraction (SPF) by flow cytometry (FCM) and an optimised fully automatic DNA image cytometer (ICM) correlate with grade in TaT1 urothelial cell carcinomas (UC) of the urinary bladder. MATERIALS AND METHODS Two-hundred-and twenty-eight consensus cases were analysed. Single cell suspensions were stained (DAPI for FCM, Feulgen for ICM). There was en...
متن کاملMolecular identification using flow cytometry histograms and information theory
Flow cytometry is a common technique for quantitatively measuring the expression of individual molecules on cells. The molecular expression is represented by a frequency histogram of fluorescence intensity. For flow cytometry to be used as a knowledge discovery tool to identify unknown molecules, histogram comparison is a major limitation. Many traditional comparison methods do not provide adeq...
