Flow Cytometry, an analytical cytology technic which allows several parameters assessment in thousands cells per seconds is frequently used in hematology. The oldest application is the leucocyte count but several news applications have been developed for the analysis of cytomorphological and functional parameters of normal cells and for detection, classification of tumor cells. Most frequent applications are: The phenotyping of cells and the evaluation of relation between antigens and pathology. The cell cycle analysis which can be different in leukemic cells or which can be modified with chemotherapy or other agents. (Radiotherapy ...) Flow Karyotyping and in situ hybridization will extend applications of Flow Cytometry in hematology.

D005434 Flow Cytometry Technique using an instrument system for making, processing, and displaying one or more measurements on individual cells obtained from a cell suspension. Cells are usually stained with one or more fluorescent dyes specific to cell components of interest, e.g., DNA, and fluorescence of each cell is measured as it rapidly transverses the excitation beam (laser or mercury arc lamp). Fluorescence provides a quantitative measure of various biochemical and biophysical properties of the cell, as well as a basis for cell sorting. Other measurable optical parameters include light absorption and light scattering, the latter being applicable to the measurement of cell size, shape, density, granularity, and stain uptake.
