[Measurement of DNA content and analysis of chromosome using flow cytometry].
This include review of recent paper about sensitivity and effective of radiation therapy using flow cytometry. This paper discuss the prediction of tumor response. As predictor of response in cancer. It is DNA aneuploidy, growth fraction (% S fraction), chromosome changes, and monoclonal antibody by oncogene product protein. It is possible that the protocol of cancer treatment will be determined based on prediction data from an individual cancer. Flow cytometry would be a useful tool to get a predictor of radiation, drugs response on each cancer.
