Abstract:
With the improvement of the multi-parameter and high throughput technology,FCM has expanded its clinical application from cellular phenotying to other areas,such as protein function analysis,fine needle aspiration,cerebrospinal fluid determination,circulating tumor cell detection as well as clinical microbiology.Currently,lack of standards for the sample processing,equipment adjustment and data analysis remains the main obstacle for routine application of FCM.Therefore,it is recommended to establish consensus standard operation procedures as well as shared FCM platform regionally to provide better service of FCM in clinical laboratory.
