SYSTEM, METHOD, AND ARTICLE FOR DETECTING ABNORMAL CELLS USING MULTI-DIMENSIONAL ANALYSIS

摘要

A system, method, and article for diagnosing a test set of biological cells. For example, in one embodiment a normal set of cells is characterized using flow cytometry. A centroid and radius are defined for a set of clusters in an n-dimensional space corresponding to a normal maturation for a cell lineage in the normal set of cells. A test set of cells is characterized using flow cytometry and the characterization is compared to the set of clusters.
