Interactive multi-window integration of two-parameter flow cytometric data fields.
Integration is necessary to determine the particle content of regions of interest of flow cytometric two-parameter fields. The improved program of the Cytomic 12 analyzer (1) offers: window trace integration for relatively simple window structures. The field of interest is surrounded by an integration trace (window). Eight independent windows can be stored and successively evaluated. It also offers painted field integration for complicated window structures. The pointer or a small window is interactively moved over the structures to be integrated like the brush of a painter. The "painted field" defines the window to be integrated. Window sets and painted fields can be stored on a floppy disk. Painted fields can be added and may also serve as look up tables for sorting.
