Abstract     Image Cytometry (ICM) leads often to more reliable DNA measurement of archival solid tumors than Flow Cytometry (FCM) due to sorting of unwanted nuclear elements (inflammatory and stromal cell nuclei, nuclear debris). Nevertheless, interactive sorting is time consuming and unable to give statistically valuable results in an acceptable delay for clinical oncology. The strategy, first results and output of an automatic cell classifier developed within the framework of the optimization of a DNA analyzer are here presented.
