[Flow cytometry: a multiparameter cytological analysis technic].
Cytometry is a cell analysis technique which owns its effectiveness to advances in immunology, chemistry, data processing, electronics and optics. Taken together, all these sciences have led to the development of the cytometer, an instrument which analyzes and sorts the cells with the help of structural and/or functional parameters determined on each individual cell. Because of the diversity of cell parameters which can be quantified by cytometry, this technique is now widely used in oncology, immunology and pharmacology.
